Maebyeong (Mae-byeong, Korean:매병) refers to Korean vessels with a small slightly curled mouth rim, short neck, round shoulder, and constricted waist.

[1] The maebyong is derived from the Chinese meiping (literally "plum vase").

[2][3] Unlike the Chinese meiping, the Korean maebyeong vase usually flares outward at the base.

[4][5] Some of these vessels have a cup-shaped cover over the mouth, so that they seemed to be used to store high quality wine such as insamju (인삼주, ginseng wine) or maehwaju (매화주; rice wine made with plum)[6] It would have originally had a lid and there are many maebyong with ginseng leaves on the surfaces.

[9] South Korean potters frequently make sets of matching maebyeong and jubyeong vases that are usually purchased as a gift for a newly wed couple.
