The colour that Goryeo potters spent generations chasing — a jade green so precise it was called an act of nature.
The Goryeo Celadon Chrysanthemum Cup and Saucer Set is a collaboration between MU:DS (National Museum of Korea) and SSUEIM, translating a thousand years of Cheongja (청자) tradition into a vessel for daily use. The Bisaek (비색) jade glaze — the hallmark of Goryeo porcelain at its finest — is applied over a chrysanthemum motif set using the underglaze transfer (하회전사) technique, fusing pattern and clay body before the final firing. This is not surface decoration. The design lives inside the glaze, where light bends through it and the flower appears to bloom from within.
Set on a timber tray with a small teapot for a quiet morning, the jade cup holds green tea the way it was always meant to. Used for specialty coffee at a home counter, the chrysanthemum motif becomes an unexpected and elegant conversation piece. Placed on an open shelf alongside ceramics from other traditions, the Goryeo glaze holds its own without effort. PEUM carries this piece not as a reference to Korean craft, but as the thing itself.
For the tea drinker who understands the vessel matters as much as what it holds — a meaningful gift for anyone entering a new home. Handcrafted in South Korea. A collaboration a thousand years in the making, made for tomorrow's table.
