A Quick Look at the Collection

With the use of various hashtags, the National Museum of Korea introduces Korean traditional cultural heritage items. Find and follow relevant hashtags of the NMK’s social media accounts for light and easy access to information on Korean culture.

In this issue we have put together a collection of 11 seals decorated with handles in various shapes, from the royal seal, which is a regular square, to small seals that exemplify the aesthetics of humor. We hope you will gain unexpected inspiration from these items that were made hundreds of years ago. To see more seals, search for “seal” in the Collection Database of the museum’s website (https://www.museum.go.kr/site/eng/home) where the images can also be downloaded.
