Abstract

This study is a study on the iron craft workshops and craftsmen who were in charge of making metal crafts when making the tombs of the king and queen during the reign of King Sukjong. The iron craft workshop of the royal tomb construction project, the subject of this thesis, is a space prepared for the production of various crafts. Artisans belonging to this space were in charge of all processes from material processing to completion of crafts. The workshop was headed by an experienced craftsman who worked on the project with other craftsmen. The analysis of the craftsmen who made iron crafts became an important data for organically analyzing the iron materials and manufacturing techniques they used when constructing royal tombs and buildings during the Joseon Dynasty, and the types and uses of finished crafts. It was found that the iron craftworks workshop in the area where the royal tomb was built, which was implemented during the year of King Sukjong, produced various decorations, members, and tools necessary for the project, and was also in charge of decorating the surface of the craftwork in some cases. In addition, it was confirmed that among the craftsmen who participated in the project, there were specialized craftsmen who performed only a specific field. The existence of these craftsmen seems to have contributed to maintaining the uniform quality of the products. As such, in this thesis, it was possible to grasp a part of the metal craft production system in the Joseon royal-led project through the role of the iron craft workshop and the artisans belonging to it.
