Pottery: Unknown
Stoneware, thrown, covered with white slip, and punch'ong-glazed. This bowl with broad mouth has a circular depression in the centre. Six spurs made of the same clay as the body (t'aet'o pijimnun) are remaining on the high foot and six spur-marks are visible inside the bowl. The glaze is of ivory-white colour due to the underlying white slip, and has a fine dark-stained crackle. The base is unglazed.
