Materials
Bangjja bronze — copper 78 % / tin 22 %, hand-forged. Made in Anseong, Korea (Anseong-matchum Yugi workshop).
Care
Wash by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent, rinse and dry immediately to avoid water marks; do not boil, do not use a dishwasher and avoid abrasive scourers on the polished surface. Bronze darkens naturally with use — the store sells a bronze-only scrubber that brings back the shine (rub in one direction on a dry surface). Keep away from strong acids and salt water for long periods.
Gift wrapping
Ships in the maker's standard gift box. Premium boxed wrapping and traditional yedan (wedding-gift) bojagi wrapping are available on request; the surcharge is quoted before payment.
Dispatch
Dispatched from Anseong; weekday orders placed before 12:00 KST usually leave the same day.
About the maker
Yeoulnuri sells the bangjja (hand-forged) bronzeware of Anseong, Gyeonggi — the historic centre of Korean bronze tableware — made in the workshop of Lee Jong-mun, holder of Anseong Intangible Cultural Heritage No. 2. Copper and tin are alloyed in the traditional 78:22 ratio, cast, then hammered and turned by hand rather than pressed by machine. Bangjja bronze holds heat and cold well, resists bacteria and does not chip; a KCL test report shows no lead, cadmium, nickel, arsenic or hexavalent chromium leaching.
