If you're new to Yugi Brassware, we recommend starting with this Signature 1-Person Full Korean Yugi Set!

What distinguishes Korean Yugi (also known as Bangjja) from other types of brozenware is the alloy ratio between copper and tin.
Yugi requires an exact ratio of 78% copper and 22% tin.
From this precise ratio, Yugi achieves a golden sheen that radiates brighter over time (with repeated polishing).
Yugi also prevents viruses, bacteria and microorganisms from growing on its surface.
That's why Yugi ware was used to serve the Korean Royal Family and Court.
In modern times, Yugi ware has come back into vogue and often bought as a premium gift for newlyweds and housewarming events.
If you're new to Korean cooking or food styling, consider starting your collection with this beautiful 1-Person Full Set.

We provide a special Yugi Scrub for removing stains & polishing - for free!
Start with Coarse Scrub to remove stains
Use the front-side (red side)
Note: Scrub WITHOUT water - both the scrub & yugi piece should be dry
Finish with FINE scrub if stain is stubborn
Use the front-side (grey side)
Note: Scrub WITHOUT water - both the scrub & yugi piece should be dry
Each Piece is Handmade
Nothyang makes each Yugi piece by hand
As such, there may be a subtle difference in size, appearance or minor scratches/blemishes/stains.
These minor imperfections do not qualify as a damaged item.
Soak in Vinegar Before First Use
Before first use, soak the Yugi pieces in warm water with vinegar (any kind)
Use a ratio of 2 Cups of Water for every 1 Tablespoon Vinegar
Soak for a minimum of 30 mins up to 1 hour (not any longer)
Then rinse with soap and dry-off completely with a kitchen towel
This pre-step soaking helps to remove a slight metallic smell in new Yugi (only need to do once)
Yes, any leftover metallic smell will be gone after repeated usage & washing
Q: I see stains on my Yugi - why is this & how do I remove this?
Stains form when the Yugi pieces are stored away while not being completely dry (i.e water droplets).
Don't panic - it's completely normal and simply requires a round of polishing
Use the backside of a dry 3M Dishwasher Sponge (the coarse, dark green side)
Or use Nothyang's Yugi Wear Scrub
Place on a disposable glove and spread out a few newspapers (good tip)
Then remove the stain by scrubbing it - while it's dry
IMPORTANT: Both the Yugi piece & the Scrub should be DRY when scrubbing (no water!)
The stain will come off as a fine black powder
Shake-off the black powder onto the newspaper - then discard
We recommend polishing the entire Yugi piece (not just the stain) - as it helps to reveal it's natural golden sheen
Then rinse the Yugi piece with hot water & soap ... and dry-off completely with a kitchen towel
Don't use Stainless Steel Scrubbers/Wool
Instead, use a regular 3M Sponge when scrubbing-off stains - the dark-green, coarse side
(Or Nothyang's Special Yugi Scrubs)
For a more visual walk-through, watch the video below ...
Copper (78%) and Tin (22%) are melted together at a very high temperature to create a liquid alloy.
Following traditional thermal forging techniques, the alloy is rolled back & forth to reduce the porosity and increase the density of the material.
The alloy sheets are then pressed into different molds to create the general shape of a bowl, plate, or tableware
Each mold is measured for evenness, balance, uniformity and any blemishes. The best ones are selected for hand-processing.
Each piece is meticulously hand-polished until it is perfectly smooth with a golden sheen
Finally, each Yugi piece is tested to see if it possess anti-septic properties. If it passes, it is then offered to the general public for sale.
FAQ ABOUT YUGI
No. If you use - and wash - your yugiware regularly, the golden sheen becomes brighter (assuming proper care).
Yes, you may smell a slight metallic smell from Yugi when you first use it.
(This is the smell of the copper - it's normal and part of the break-in process)
To remove the smell, do the following steps:
1. Soak the Yugi in a mixture of hot water & vinegar (ratio mentioned above) for 10 minutes.
2. Then wash it with soap & a dish sponge - followed by a rinse under hot running water.
3. Place it back into the water & vinegar mixture for an additional 10 minutes.
4. Then scrub it again with soap & dish sponge - followed by a rinse under hot running water.
5. Then dry it off completely!
This should remove the smell.
But if you still smell a faint smell, don't worry...
After a few weeks of regular usage - and washing - it should disappear completely.
No, Yugi ware is for plating and serving only (not for cooking in heat).
Do NOT place it into the microwave or over any stovetop.
After washing the Yugi ware, dry it off completely with a kitchen towel.
There should be no wet spots - or moisture left - on the Yugi.
Please re-read the last section in the Product Notice Section (in our product page above).
The golden sheen never disappears. You just have to reveal it!
First - while it's dry - scrub-off any visible stains. Use the backside of 3M Kitchen Sponge (make sure the sponge is dry). You'll see the stain come off as a fine black powder.
Then fill a small pot with hot water. Add a few large splashes of vinegar and few pinches of baking soda (doesn't have to be exact). Let it rest in this mixture for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, rinse-off the Yugi. Then dry it off completely with a kitchen towel!
Note: If baking soda & vinegar isn't working too well. you can also soak the Yugiware in Tomato Juice (yes, it works!).
Fill a large pot (or other large container) with equal parts tomato juice & water (1:1 ratio). Soak the yugi in this tomato mixture for 30 minutes. Afterwards, wash it off with water and soap. Then rinse it off again and dry it off completely with a kitchen towel!
