The brand, which was founded in August by Korean-German couple Hwon Kang and Philipp Schulze, pays homage to Joseon Korea’s earliest known earthenware, the Moon Jar.
Ms Hwon, 27, says: “We have positioned The Moon Jar as an online store and we are also looking at increasing our inventory with more handcrafted ceramics from other parts of Asia.”

At the heart of the present collection are handmade works by Korean master ceramicists from the Icheon Ceramics Village, such as Kim Seok Binn, whose Blueline Collection (above) fuses contemporary curves with hand-painted cobalt lines framing white porcelain.
