Korean tea ritual — celadon dawan and clay teapot

A beautifully composed editorial photograph of a traditional Korean tea ceremony. A handmade celadon green ceramic tea bowl (dawan) and a small Korean clay teapot sit on a natural hanji paper surface on a low wooden table. Warm, soft natural light from the left side. Steam rises gently from the bowl. Small dried botanicals beside the cup. The aesthetic is quiet, minimal, and deeply tactile — distinctly Korean. No tatami, no bamboo, no Japanese elements. Background is softly out of focus, warm ivory tones. Shot in Kinfolk / Aesop editorial style. Close, intimate composition. Portrait orientation.
