In human history, ceramics are the oldest "tools of civilization" and are among the tools closest to us in our daily lives. Ceramics represent the emotions and literary trends of a particular age and Korea's traditional ceramic wares serve as a barometer for understanding Korean culture in that they most accurately reflect Korean aesthetics and the Korean worldview.

This book seeks to explore the ideas and richness of international ceramic culture as well as the trends and ways in which newly developing ceramic innovations are unfolding. From the celadon of the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392) to the white porcelain of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), this book examines how Korea's ceramics tradition began, how it developed, and what makes it so special.
