[edit] Summary

Food Container: Measuring 9-1/2" high and 9-1/2" in diameter. Silla dynasty gray ware. The rhythmic pattern over the entire surface has been created by open-weave fabric that was highly textured like a basket weave and wrapped around the container in its wet state. When it dried, it left the subtle pattern we observe. Relatively rare. 8th/10th century.

From the private collection of Paul V. and Elizabeth J. Colaianni.
