- 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.
- Subject Matter
- In the late Joseon period, lidded jars such as this one were kept in every household in Korea to store homemade pickles and condiments. This is an especially handsome example.
