“Pu-re" is a pure Korean word that expresses the bluish and subtle colors of the Pu-re Onggi. Pu-re Onggi has been widely used for storing grain and water since ancient times because of its excellent waterproof and purification capabilities. Auroi's Pu-re onggi product is made in harmony with the Chunil salts, charcoal and occasional air in a traditional kiln at temperatures of over 1,300 degrees.

「 “Pu-re" is a pure Korean word that expresses the bluish and subtle colors of the Pu-re Onggi. 」
The Pu-re Onggi, which was made from a joint venture between craftsmen and nature for a long time, was not only used in large quantities of salt, one of the state-controlled items at the time, but was also used in the royal court in recognition of its excellence during the production process. Auroi's Pu-re onggi brought back the meaning of nobility expressed in its signature dark blue light on the table of modern people.
“ Pure sa Bowl”
Tableware
The change in asymmetrical shape and thickness of the Pu-re onggi salad bowl gives a sense of the freedom and warmth of the onggi master Kim Chang-ho. The gentle slope of the salad bowl harmonizes. Also, the Pu-re onggi can be preserved fresh for a long time because of the preservative caused by the sun salt used in the production process. It is environmentally friendly because it does not use artificial glaze during the production process. Charcoal, which adds black light to the salad bowl, has the function of purification, purification and deodorization to remove impurities as well as to help prevent the smell from mixing with other foods. The dark blue onggi, made of soil, salt, charcoal and wind, shows what nature has. The food, combined with the Pu-re onggi, conveys a natural freshness.
“ Bottle & cup”
Teaware
A bottle and cup with a natural curved structure. The blue color of the Pu-re onggi combines a warm texture with a flowing form. The shape that flows naturally is beautiful to look at, but also convenient to use.
