Refers to a ceramic decoration technique in which copper oxide pigment is diluted in water and painted onto the surface of a vessel before glazing and firing. In reduction firing it appears red, while in oxidation it turns green. Achieving a stable color can be difficult due to the high volatility of the pigment, requiring considerable time and skill. In Korea, it was used on some celadon during the late Goryeo Dynasty and on white porcelain from the 18th century onward, during the Joseon Dynasty.

Refers to a ceramic decoration technique in which iron oxide-based pigment is diluted in water and typically applied with a brush onto a vessel'€™s surface before glazing. When fired in reduction, the decoration appears black or brown. In Korea, the technique was applied to Goryeo cheongja (Goryeo celadon) and later to buncheong sagi (buncheong ware) and white porcelain. It became especially widespread in the 17th century as an alternative to cobalt-blue underglaze painting. When the pigment is applied over the entire surface it is called "€œcheolchae" (iron coloring), but when only motifs are painted it is called "€œcheolhwa" (iron painting).
