This buncheong jar dates back to the early Joseon period. The mouth is bent outward and then rolled up, and the body swells in the middle before curving back in to form a foot with a diameter similar to that of the mouth. A scroll-designed band sits on the shoulder while a lotus-designed band decorates the lower body. The entire body is decorated with an inlaid dragon design.
