Much of Jong Duk Lee’s life has been dedicated to the bangjja technique – over the course of his life, he has travelled across Korea, Japan and China to learn from masters of the craft. After copious trial and error, he perfected it himself. This bowl captures the beauty of the labour-intensive method; forged entirely by hand, the brass is melted, poured, moulded and pounded, before it’s dipped in water and hammered to reach the desired form.

Meet the Maker:
Jong Duk Lee
Korea’s Jong Duk Lee majors in the ancient craft of bangjja, which is a unique form of metalwork dating back approximately 1,000 years to the Goryeo period. The process starts with raw materials being melted, poured onto plate frames, moulded and pounded while still hot. The tricky part is knowing when to remove the plate from the fire before it melts away and how many times you can manipulate it before it breaks. According to Jong Duk Lee, experience is paramount to mastering the art form, so he encourages younger artisans to pick up – and most importantly, preserve – the remarkable craft.
