"The Salty Fairy Vessel is a tribute to my South Korean heritage, inspired by the deep comfort and love I felt watching my grandmother place a ceramic jar filled with salt near the entrance of our home, a ritual meant to protect us from negative energy. Combining this cherished tradition with the enchanting mystery of fairy rings, I created a salt container that not only embodies cultural protection and magic but also reflects my profound connection to my roots and the warmth of my home sweet home."

Shipping Information

All items purchased from the Gathered exhibition will ship after the show closes. Many of the pieces are delicate and handmade, so we recommend in-person pick-up at Lyle Gallery whenever possible—that’s the safest option and helps ensure your piece arrives in perfect condition.

If you require shipping, we’ll carefully pack each item and send it out once the exhibition has ended. For international orders, please email us at info@thelyle.gallery for a custom shipping quote based on your location and the object’s size and fragility.
