Compact, fiery, and full of personality, Dogabi Oil Lamp No. 765 feels like a small guardian creature ready to light its own path. Hand-thrown in white porcelain and sculpted into its stout, four-legged form, it carries the classic Dogabi expression: bold eyes, a fierce grin, and horns dipped in 23.5k British gold.
The glaze—an earthy, volcanic red-brown—moves like molten stone, catching gold reflections at every angle. When lit, the wick transforms the piece entirely: a tiny flame hovering above a mythological companion, turning a simple oil lamp into a character with presence.

WHY IT’S SPECIAL
No. 765 is part sculpture, part flame-bearing talisman. Its compact size, expressive face, and gleaming gold accents make it one of those Dogabi pieces that feels instantly animated—an object that doesn’t just sit in a room, but watches over it.
THE BRAND
Dogabi is the ongoing ceramic world of Korean artist Hyung-Jun Kim, who reimagines traditional goblin spirits as expressive, hand-crafted porcelain forms. Each piece is entirely one-of-a-kind, created to carry luck, humor, protection, and a touch of the supernatural into everyday life.
