E-Hakeme Sake Flask (Naoto Yano)
24,200Yen(Tax Included)
This Gyerongsan sake flask embodies the spirited elegance of the Joseon dynasty while breathing with a contemporary vitality. Its clay body, rich in iron, is coated with white slip applied by brush, upon which dynamic iron-painted motifs are rendered with lively, expressive strokes. When sake is poured, it releases a gentle toku-toku sound—an intimate, pleasing resonance that fills not only the vessel, but also the heart of the one who uses it.

Gyeryongsan
Gyeryongsan is a celebrated peak rising in Gongju, Chungcheongnam-do, Korea, its distinctive ridgeline evoking the form of a rooster’s crest and a dragon’s head. Across the mountain’s foothills lie numerous ancient kiln sites, where, from the 15th to 16th centuries, buncheong ware was produced using iron-rich clay coated with brushed white slip and adorned with freely executed iron-painted designs. These works have long been collectively known as “Gyeryongsan” ware and are today held in high esteem worldwide. A wide range of techniques—Mishima inlay, hakeme, white ware, black glaze, and more—was developed, and vessel forms include bowls, dishes, bottles, and jars. The first full-scale archaeological investigation was conducted in 1929 by Sozo Kanda and Ken Nomori, followed by a reinvestigation in 1992–93 by the National Museum of Korea and the Hoam Art Museum. These findings have become foundational materials for the study of buncheong ware.
