About
A quiet, traditional-feeling workshop for making a mother-of-pearl keyring with a magpie-and-tiger folk-art design.
Here, the work is in your hands: a one-day class has you make a keyring using najeon, the traditional craft of decorating with mother-of-pearl. You choose and press the small pearl pieces yourself, arranging them in a magpie-and-tiger design drawn from Korean folk painting. Materials are provided, and you do not need previous craft experience. The result is a small, personal souvenir rather than something you simply pick up from a shelf. The workshop is described as quiet and gallery-like, with a traditional feel. An instructor gives patient, detailed guidance, so beginners can follow the process without having to arrive with an artistic plan. It suits couples looking for an indoor date, but friends, families with children and solo visitors also feel at ease. One blog describes the instructor as having 30 years of lacquer-craft experience. The studio is reported to be on the first floor of a commercial building in an apartment complex, beside the Asean Culture House and near Jangsan Station exit 2. Parking is described as convenient. Catalog hours are Monday to Friday, 10:00–17:00, with a lunch break from 13:00 to 14:00; the catalog does not list weekend hours. Since this is a class rather than a browse-through gallery visit, check availability before going. Allow time to make the keyring at your own pace; no class duration is listed.
