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.

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 />

This is a blue-gray, long-necked, high-fired stoneware jar. The long and flared neck of the jar is divided into four sections by thin horizontal incised lines in three places. The sections are decorated by the repeated use of short, downward strokes and wave designs made from scratching the surface with an implement. The body of the jar is widest at the middle, and slightly above the widest point, two incised lines have been drawn to form a section where the same wave design is applied from right to left according to the above technique. The lower part of the body shows faint traces of a parallel paddled pattern that has almo

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
