It has a flat base and straight body. The body is divided with incised lines and each section is embellished with a simple wave design. A pair of D-shaped handles is attached to the body. Its lid features a hemispheric body surmounted by a button-shaped knob.<br /> <br /> This is a set consisting of a dark gray, high-fired stoneware bowl and its lid. The lid is crowned with a button-shaped knob at its center, which is encircled by two thinly incised lines drawn by a multitooth comb. These lines divide the lid&rsquo;s surface into inner and outer sections, to both of which wave designs have been applied. On each side of the bowl, a long, narrow, band-shaped handle is attached vertically and symmetrically. The base of the bowl is flat, while the part where the base and body of the bowl meet is rounded. The bowl gradually flares upwards. Three broad raised bands surround three parts of the body. A wave design is rendered between each band. Faint traces of paddled patterns are visible on parts of the base. <p>

It looks like a rescent, animal&#39;s tooth or fetus. There is a hole and some carved line on the head part.<br /> <br /> This is a comma-shaped bead made from dark green jade. Such crescent moon-shaped beads, referred to as<em> gogok</em>, were used to decorate golden crowns, clothing, and belts. This example, which was attached to other ornaments via the hole in its head, is typical of comma-shaped beads of the Three Kingdoms period. Three parallel lines are incised across the hole, from which four more incised lines radiate upwards.<br /> [Korean Collection, University of Michigan Museum of Art (2017) p.33]

The body is incised with two narrow bands of combed wavy patterns that lay just below sets of two indented lines.<br /> <br /> The long neck of this dark gray or yellow-gray, high-fired stoneware jar with a pedestal splays outwards in a straight line. The rim of the jar is narrow and flat, while the neck is divided into two sections by a set of three narrow, sharp and horizontal ridges. The lower neck section features a wave design that was produced using a five-tooth comb. The body is widest towards its upper-middle part, above which is located a single laterally incised line. A wave design has been applied using a three-tooth comb 1.5cm below this line. The pedestal is short, curves slightly outwards and features five square perforations. Overall, the jar is poorly fired, resulting in surface bubbles. The lower part of the jar features a p

Spherical stoneware jar with an elongated neck and wide flaring mouth. Two indented bands stretch across the base of the neck and repeat halfway up the neck as it flares outward.<br /> <br /> This is a dark grayish brown, long-necked, high-fired stoneware jar with a wide mouth. Its neck splays diagonally upwards before spreading horizontally just below the mouth and flaring out upwards once again. Two wide, shallow lines forming a raised band mark the boundary where the neck and body meet. A similar type of raised band surrounds the upper-middle part of the neck. The body is widest at its middle part. Its outer surface shows faint traces of having been rendered with a paddled pattern, as well as water smoothing marks in a lateral direction. The base is round and contains clear traces of rotation and water smoothing. The inner surface of the neck shows irregular and rough traces of the supporting anvil (used during the paddling process) in a vertical direction, as well as rotation and water smoothing marks.
