New "Bangjja Bronzeware" video
Banjja, a traditional hand-forged bronze alloy, is the material most favored by Korean people for making utensils and tableware, and has since ancient times earned worldwide acclaim for its beauty and quality.
Bangjja is composed of 78% copper and 22% tin, and is more malleable than other bronze alloys. Its unique copper-tin ratio, which to this day is used only by Korean craftsmen, cannot be achieved using modern methods, and defies modern technology. Bangjja tableware also has sterilizing properties, adding a further layer of mystery to this seemingly impossible alloy.
