Hwiho Craft is a traditional craft experience workshop in Korea, where you can immerse yourself in the art of mother-of-pearl craftsmanship. Through this experience, you will learn the techniques behind working with mother-of-pearl, a unique material made from thinly processed seashells that display vibrant colors. These natural hues possess a sophisticated beauty that can’t be replicated artificially. At our workshop, you will have the opportunity to create a variety of items, such as keychains, hair accessories, compact mirrors, and accessory boxes, all using mother-of-pearl. You can express a wide range of designs, from traditional Korean patterns to personal initials. We offer a selection of patterns, shapes, and even Hangeul or English letters to create a one-of-a-kind souvenir. Join us at one of Seoul’s hottest spots and craft your very own personalized keepsake!
