One More Interesting Tang Gwan (Tetsubin) By Kim Jeong Hoon

One loves the blooming lotus flower knob and how the rusty metal handle is arching low over the full sized body of this pot. If you look closely you can see the auspicious coy fish broadsided by the handle, feeding on the spout. Kim Jeong Hoon really pulls off an interesting pond motif here.

A Shelf Full of Rustic Beauties: Tang Gwans (Tetsubins) by Kim Jeong Hoon

This shelf of tang gwans in a local Daegu shop sure catch ones wandery eyes. Each holds excessive rugged character beyond its years. Each contains such individuality that its hard to even group them together. The details allow one to stare at each for a long time, admiring the rusty spots on their handles, the rugged edges along their sides, the textured earthy clay of their body, the minute detail of their unique knobs, and their overall thought provoking shape. They're all so beautiful and yet so different.
