Norigae: Korean Traditional Ornament
Enhance the elegance of your hanbok with a norigae, a traditional Korean accessory worn at the waist of a jeogori or skirt. These delicate and colorful embellishments blend tradition and beauty, adding a luxurious feel to any outfit.
Appearance and Symbols
Norigae is not only visually stunning but also carries deep spiritual meaning, symbolizing eternal life. This precious decoration is a timeless piece of cultural heritage cherished by various social classes, from the royal family to the upper class to the common people.
Traditional Norigae
- 100% Handmade
- Material: High-quality silk & jade
- Size: 35*4cm
When choosing a norigae for hanbok accessories, select a norigae with a color similar to the jeogori (upper part) or ribbon.
To maintain its pristine condition, use a steam iron to straighten any wrinkles.
If you don’t have a steam iron, hang it on a hook and stand it up.
If the norigae thread becomes crooked, sprinkle water on it, and it will recover quickly.
Caution
- Each norigae may vary slightly in size, usually by about 0.5 to 1 cm.
- Product color may vary slightly depending on monitor settings and resolution.
- Sewing or other finishes may not be perfect, and there may be seam lines, wrinkles, dents, bond marks, scratches, etc.
- Due to the nature of natural fibers, natural lines may form.
Add a traditional and luxurious touch to your hanbok ensemble by incorporating the rich cultural heritage and timeless beauty of norigae.

Cada norigae es una historia vibrante que espera ser contada, un relato tejido con hilos de tradiciones ancestrales. Este modelo en particular, delicadamente elaborado a mano y adornado con jade, captura la esencia del lujo en su máxima expresión. La fusión de colores suaves evoca no solo belleza estética sino también la riqueza cultural de Corea. Desde el primer momento al ponerme mi hanbok acompañado por esta pieza elegante, me transporté a los palacios reales donde se celebraban festividades llenas de significado. Sin duda alguna, este complemento convierte cualquier ocasión especial en un evento memorable.

Gente, vocês não acreditam como esse norigae mudou minha experiência com o hanbok! As cores vibrantes e os detalhes em seda são um espetáculo. Ele combina tão bem com o meu jeogori azul – é como se a peça estivesse gritando para ser admirada! O significado dele sobre vida eterna só aumenta sua beleza e valor pra mim. É tipo usar um pedacinho da história do nosso povo, mas com muito estilo na modernidade de hoje. Super recomendo que todo mundo tenha pelo menos um desses nas suas roupas tradicionais.
