Polluck, named by blending “Pollack” with “Luck,” is a contemporary reinterpretation of a traditional Korean good luck symbol, the Aekmagi Myeongtae (dried pollack), long believed to ward off misfortune. Inspired by a revival of symbolic objects among Korea’s MZ generation, it reflects a desire for emotional comfort amid social and environmental uncertainty.
Polluck is crafted from Paper Marble, a unique upcycled material made from shredded post-industrial waste paper, combined with minerals and plant-based resins. Every piece is 100% handmade, making each one distinctive in its marbling pattern and texture. This careful craftsmanship ensures that every Polluck has a one-of-a-kind identity.
Polluck is not just a decorative object; it is a hybrid piece between sculpture, craft, and design. It serves as both an amulet and a functional item. Its tactile presence allows users to emotionally connect with it, as it can function as a wind chime, doorbell, or simply a poetic interior design piece. By embodying sustainable materials and mindful craftsmanship, Polluck offers a lasting charm that is as kind to the planet as it is meaningful to its owner.
