Korean celadon, known for its distinctive jade-green glaze, is a type of pottery that reached its zenith during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392). This exquisite ceramic ware is celebrated for its elegant shapes, intricate carved designs, and the subtle beauty of its glaze, which can vary in color from a pale blue-green to a deep jade. The glaze often features a delicate crackle pattern that adds depth and texture to the surface. Korean celadon is highly prized for its artistic and technical mastery, particularly the inlaid designs (sanggam) that involve etching patterns into the clay and filling them with contrasting colored slip before glazing. These pieces are revered for their serene beauty and have had a significant influence on the development of ceramics in East Asia.
