　　String patterns were widely used on Neolithic pottery. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the decorative role of string patterns on ceramics continued to be highly emphasized. On gray pottery from the Spring and Autumn period, broad spiral patterns served as the primary decorative motif. From the Han and Wei dynasties onward, the use of string patterns on ceramics remained persistent and unbroken. During the Northern Dynasties, long, raised string patterns became the main decorative feature on celadon bottles, jars, and pots, giving rise to a distinctive stylistic hallmark of the era. The thick string patterns formed wide bands with concave grooves in the middle, resembling roof tiles—hence the name "tile patterns." The pot lids featured integrated, mushroom-shaped knobs that were seamlessly molded into the lid itself. The pot had a straight mouth adorned with bamboo-section纹, a short spout for smooth water flow, and a hollow, arched handle with an insulated section in the middle. This 900-mL vessel can yield approximately twenty cups of tea infusion, making it ideal for gatherings where multiple people enjoy tea together.
