He found a love for metal craft and lacquering later in life, gravitating towards metal panels, wood and fabrics. The artist’s preferred method is the Ottchil technique, involving lacquer originating from the sap of Rhus trees native to Korea. For Huh Myoung Wook, colour is at the heart of everything. He believes in Qi (meaning energy in Eastern traditions) and instils a sense of emotion into every smooth, varnished object, whether a piece of serveware, or a placemat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"huh-myoung-wook-ottchil-leather-placemat-set-of-5-2214206002","title":"Ottchil Ash Placemats with Leather Holder (Set of 5)","description":"Korean culture assigns emotions to colours; for example, while red represents passion, love and creativity, green signifies youthfulness, new energy and a fresh start.
