秦漢時期，手工業迅猛發展，尤其是到了漢朝，隨著社會的逐漸穩定、經濟的蓬勃發展、文化的多元繁榮製陶業也進入了它的輝煌時代。雖然在歷史發展的軌跡中，陶製品的發明與使用並不如鐵器或是青銅器具有劃時代的意義，更多的只是作為普通生活用具而呈現。當下，關於陶的研究也不及瓷火熱，但其所留下的文史資訊同樣有著非凡的歷史價值與意義。
這一時期，在陶器方面彩繪興盛、顏色釉出現，建築用陶上瓦當的紋飾發展又獨樹一幟，其他陶製品的裝飾表現也越來越多樣。本文將通過研究秦漢時期陶製品，分析他們的裝飾方法、裝飾紋飾、內涵，瞭解從中反映出的社會生活和文化生活。
During the Qin and Han dynasties, handicrafts developed rapidly, especially in the Han dynasty. The society gradually became stable, the economy flourished, and the culture prospered. The pottery industry also entered its glorious age. Although in the trajectory of historical development, the invention and use of pottery products are not as epoch-making as iron or bronze wares, and they are more often presented as ordinary life utensils. At present, the research on pottery is not as hot as in porcelain, but the information on literature and history left behind also has extraordinary historical value and significance.
During this period, the flourishing of pottery and the emergence of color glazes, the patterning development of the architectural ceramic pottery was unique, and the decorative performance of other pottery products became more and more diverse. This article will study the pottery products of the Qin and Han Dynasties, analyze their decorative methods, decorative ornamentation, and decoration styles, and use them to understand the aesthetic features of the time and the cultural characteristics and connotations of different regions, and to understand the social life and cultural life reflected in them.
