Icheon City - Korea's Ceramic Capital

Living 30 minutes away from Icheon City. It means that every year we get to go to the Ceramic Festival. If we're lucky, it would be the Biennele World Ceramic Festival which means there would be ceramic exhibits from countries all over the world. My friend, Deborah Lee, invited me to a sumptous Korean lunch in Icheon City. The restaurant, Goegung, features 6-course to 12-course meals with it's specialty - steamed Icheon rice (formerly the Emperor's rice back in the Joseon era). But I digress. Beside the restaurant is a ceramic shop and my friend and I browsed there for a bit after our lunch to, let's say ease our tummy and waistbands a bit. Here are the ceramic treasures that we saw.
I just had to get these two cute teeny tiny mugs. Aren't they adorable?
