During the Unified Silla period (668–935), the exaggerated shapes of ceramics made during the earlier Silla (57 BCE–585 CE) and Gaya (42–532) kingdoms gave way to more compact and contained forms. Potters produced a wide variety of tableware, ranging from completely unadorned pieces to cups, jars, and bottles elaborately decorated with stamped designs.
