Pottery Bowl (Han Dynasty) 

In the Han Dynasty the pottery technology used much more glaze than the previous dynasties. The copper was also used as a color agent for the glaze. It laid a foundation of the later Low-Temperature Lead Glaze Pottery.  

The pottery was used in the daily lives by the public as kitchen stuff such as pot, bowl or plate. There were many patterns on the surface and sometimes colored painting as well. Geometrical patterns and animal painting are often seen on the excavated potteries.
