Suncheongja
Pure Celadon is celadon which has no decorations such as inlaid lights on it. It is known as the first type of celadon ever made in Korean Peninsula.

Plain Celadon
Having no decorations, the shape of the bowl and the color of the glaze of this type of celadon are particularly excellent. It is considered to be the earliest celadon.

Celadon In Relief
Celadon in relief refers to celadon made using embossing technique.(link) There are two kinds of embossed celadon. The first is celadon which must be embossed to show its shape, and the other is celadon with embossing used for decorative purposes.

Incised Celadon
The engraved pattern in celadon is very thin, so if the glaze is not properly melted, the indented lines would not appear, which makes incised celadon require very high skill. It is seen in the excellent works of the early celadons.

Inlaid Celadon
Inlaid celadon was made until the end of the Goryeo Dynasty. Many black and white patterns were embroidered. By using the method of digging the pattern with a sharp knife and then filling it with other colored clay, it is possible to express the pattern finely and to make the surface smoother. Cracks may appear because two different clays shrink together.

Willow and Waterfowl Design
Willow and Waterfowl Design is used in many kinds of ceramics including celadon, and it reflects the feelings of the ancients very well. The characteristic of this design is that it contains a beautiful rural landscape, arranging black and white harmoniously.

Cloud and Crane Design
Cloud and Crane Design was mainly used in prunus vases. This pattern of the sky expresses clouds and cranes that fly away from humans. It is not clear why people of Goryeo liked to use these designs.

Flower Design
The flower design is usually a pattern of camomile, and it can be added by a pair of chrysanthemums.

Underglazed Celadon
The patterns of Underglazed Celadon are drawn with white & black paint on the surface of the bowl. The celadon is then painted with glaze and fired in a kiln.

Paste-on-paste Celadon
Paste-on-paste Celadon uses clay on brushes to draw dots or pictures before applying glaze. It is similar to inlaid celadon, but the patterns are not smooth.

Copperized Celadon
Copperized celadon is red due to oxidation of copper. It is very rare and not numerous, because copper oxide is very unstable depending on the baking conditions such as temperature control and fuel supply, so it is very difficult to produce red color.

Celadon in Underglaze Iron
Celadon in Underglaze Iron is created by applying wire paints to the entire surface of pottery made by celadon clay. The finished work is shiny with black and green colors.

Gold decorated Celadon
It is made by the technique of painting a part of finished inlaid celadon with gold. Melted gold is painted in the pattern of the inlaid celadon which has been glazed and baked to the second fire. It is then baked again in low fire to let the gold settle.

Marbled Celadon
By Kneading grey celadon foundation clay with clays of other composition, the gray, black, and white color result in a marble pattern. No engraving patterns are found in marbled celadon.
