FLOWER VASES _ No.260

Unlike other typical vases, Dogabi vases can create various personalities and atmospheres
by interacting with plants, and they allow you to experience different feelings
when viewed from different angles of the Dogabi's face.
 
STORY OF DOGABI
DOGABI is an old word for Korean goblin.
In Korea, the goblin has been regarded as the god of abundance and wealth.
They make gold for good people, protect their homes, and help them succeed. Their figures exist in people's imaginations, and sometimes they are seen as men with magical powers, or they are portrayed as terrifying monsters. You can meet Korean goblin faces imagined by ceramic artist Hyung Jun Kim in our brand.
His one-of-a-kind functional ceramic sculptures will become collectible pieces of art.
