About the Item

Gwol Bench by Lee Jung Hoon. Limited Edition of 8. Dimensions: W 200 x D 32 x H 44.1 cm Materials: Granite, Ash, Stainless Steel. The dimensions of this piece are 200 x 32 x 44.1 cm; however, the size can be slightly adjusted to suit the specific requirements of your space. Each granite element is individually hand-carved, preserving subtle irregularities and traces of human labor that emphasize the unique character and material depth of this limited edition work. The Gwol Bench is a centerpiece of Junghoon Lee’s Gwol Series, a collection that explores tradition and time as tangible presences rather than distant symbols. At its heart is the Sumaksae—a traditional Korean decorative roof tile historically associated with protection—reinterpreted here as a symbolic form hand-carved from enduring granite. This organic, hand-carved element reveals the subtle traces of human labor and stands in deliberate opposition to the bench’s contemporary structure, which features precisely machine-fabricated stainless steel and refined ash wood. By juxtaposing historical craftsmanship with modern industry, the Gwol Bench achieves a quiet balance between past and present, functioning as both a functional piece of art furniture and a sculptural object of reflection. Lee Jung-hoon is a Korean craft and furniture designer who essentially draws inspiration from Korean heritage to create contemporary sculptural pieces that embody latent symbolism and double as practically usable objects. Tradition is a gene-like thing, which goes through evolution and degradation with the times. Although it is now a turbulent time in tradition, The unique gemstones inside of it remain unchanged. He wants to discover and explore these stones to find the formation that Encompasses tradition and modern times. He is working on finding new types of furniture and decorations under the theme of Korean tradition, and at the same time wants to design the furniture that society needs today.
