Black Orion Classic Koryo Color, with a simple, tradtional pattern. Koryo Celadon The art of Koryo Celadon was first practiced during the period of Korean history known as the Koryo period – 918 to 1392 C.E.. ‘Celadon’ means blue colored porcelain in Korean. It is, in fact, the deep blue – green color that sets Koryo Celadon apart as being special. It is the result of careful combination of different colored clay. Another unique aspect of Koryo Celadon is that it is fired twice. The item is fired firstly at around 750 degrees Celsius. Then the surface of the pottery is coated with a glaze that contains calcium carbonate as well as about two percent of iron. Next it is put into the kiln for the second time. This time the temperature is increased to about 1,300 degrees Celsius. In this firing, the air supply to the kiln is limited, which results in the presence of carbon monoxide. Size The cup has a six ounce capacity. Microwave / dishwasher safe.
Care Suggestions
Avoid using any soap on the filter. The base of the filter is unglazed and will absorb the soap chemicals. Instead, simply use warm water and rinse well.
