Raised on a cylindrical foot, each plate has a gently flared rim that gives the piece a light, elevated presence while maintaining a sense of balance and restraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003ecloud-shaped openwork detail, or 구름 투각 (gureum tugak),\u003c\/span\u003e is pierced into the side of the foot. This small opening introduces a subtle decorative gesture to the otherwise minimal form, creating contrast through light, shadow, and negative space. The cloud motif connects the piece to a familiar element of Korean decorative tradition while remaining distinctly modern in its simplified expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eFinished in a luminous white glaze, the plates emphasize proportion, silhouette, and material over ornament. Their elevated form gives them a sculptural quality, making them equally suited to serving, display, or use as a quiet focal point on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eAvailable in two sizes, the plates can be used individually or paired together, where the repetition of form and cloud openwork creates a particularly harmonious composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003esmall: Ø 3.75\" x H 1.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMedium: Ø 5\" x H 1.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Kiyong Park: \u003c\/strong\u003eKiyong Park is a Korean ceramic artist based in Icheon, South Korea, whose work draws from the long history of Korean pottery while maintaining a distinctly contemporary sensibility. His practice is informed by historical forms, particularly Korean white porcelain, which he reinterprets through refined proportions, restrained surfaces, and subtle sculptural details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWorking primarily with functional vessels, Park pays close attention to the relationship between form, use, and material. Cups, bowls, and other tableware are reduced to clear, balanced silhouettes, allowing small shifts in curvature, foot, rim, and surface to become central to the character of each piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003ePark’s ceramics reflect a quiet dialogue between tradition and contemporary making, preserving the simplicity and elegance associated with Korean porcelain while giving familiar forms a renewed and individual presence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kiyong Park","offers":[{"title":"Small","offer_id":48933862015165,"sku":null,"price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":48933862047933,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0583\/5217\/3245\/files\/IMG_4482.jpg?v=1790018855","url":"https:\/\/www.earthenarchive.com\/products\/korean-baekja-porcelain-plates-cloud-shaped-details-2-sizes","provider":"EarthenArchive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
