Once used to store alcoholic beverages, this type of vase features a wide body followed by a sharply rounded shoulder, a short neck and a small opening. Most of the remaining examples no longer have a lid, but originally it may have had a lid that not only covers the opening, but also served as a cup. wall description: --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS Goryeo Dynasty: Korea's Age of Enlightenment, 918-1392.
