Insoil began in a Seoul house in 2016 and now works from a small studio in Yeonhui, west of the city. The studio designs from the quiet satisfactions of an ordinary day, often framing the work as questions: what it might feel like to drink the moon, what it would be to start a morning with a quiet vessel shaped from nature.
The set brings together all three side dish plates in the Blooming line, one of each form. Each is a shallow round dish, between 145 and 153mm across, shaped at the moment a flower opens rather than the bloom itself: 01 rises into three soft leaf-lobes; 02 opens into broader, fuller petals; 03 gathers into a dense ring of fine flutes, like a chrysanthemum. All three carry the semi-matte white glaze scattered with brown iron-oxide dots that surface during the 1,250°C firing, set differently on every piece.
Each plate is sized for a side of side dishes, a slice of cake, or the fruit at the end of a meal, reading equally as an appetizer or dessert plate; together they set three small dishes for a table, or layer one place setting. Both clay and glaze are tested cadmium- and lead-free by KICET, the Korea Institute of Ceramic Engineering and Technology. Microwave and dishwasher safe, though the semi-matte glaze can scratch against metal — wooden cutlery keeps the surface clean.
Each piece is hand-formed and hand-glazed, so minor variation is part of the work: pinholes from gas escaping during firing, occasional glaze drip lines, glazing-tong marks, and differences in dot pattern, sheen, and texture between pieces.

Things people ask
Will I have to pay customs or import taxes?
No. Every order ships DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) — all customs duties and import taxes are built into the product price, so your parcel arrives with nothing more to pay.
How long until it arrives?
We need 1 to 5 business days to confirm with the studio and prepare your order. Korea Post EMS is 3 to 7 business days in transit. Made-to-order pieces take 5 to 10 business days to prepare; we note this on the product page.
What's your return policy?
Returns accepted within 14 days of delivery, in original condition. Email contact@shopsoodam.com for a return authorization first. Buyer covers return shipping for change-of-mind; customs duties and the $25 shipping fee (on orders under $150) are non-refundable.
What if it arrives damaged?
That's on us. Email contact@shopsoodam.com within 7 days with your order number and photos of the item and packaging. We'll send a replacement or a full refund, your choice.
Can I cancel or change my order?
Within 1 hour of ordering, yes. After that we'll try, but we forward orders to studios in Korea within 24 hours, so it depends on whether preparation has started. Email contact@shopsoodam.com right away.
How does store credit work?
Every order earns 5% of the subtotal back as store credit, added to your account once your order ships. It applies automatically at checkout and stays valid for 6 months.
