Black burnished pottery is characterized by its black luster, obtained by smoothing and then adhering graphite, etc. to the vessel surface during the firing process. It first appeared in the Late Bronze Age, along with attached-rim pottery and mounted bowls. The production method is similar to that of red burnished pottery but there is a clear difference in terms of color. In addition, red burnished vessels tend to have short and slightly flaring necks, whereas black burnished vessels have long and straight necks.
