![Dark brown glaze has been dripped over the pot from above, allowing it to flow unevenly so that the lighter clay body shows through in an unpredictable pattern. The jar appears rounded in gradations, and has a small circular lid, as well as base.<br />
<br />
This jar is made of white clay and coated with brown-black glaze. No glaze was applied to the inner surface of the lid or the rim of the jar with which the lid comes into contact. The shoulder is incised with a wave design, while an incised line also surrounds the upper part of the body. The glaze is well fused to form a glossy surface. The jar is almost intact.<br />

![This brownish black bottle was made from porcelain clay coated in brownish-black glaze. The high-iron content of the glaze has given it a black shade. Sand has been removed from the clay, giving it a smooth texture. Coarse sand spurs were used during firing. The glaze is well fused and the surface is glossy. It remains intact and undamaged.<br />
