Description
A singed board of a Korean pine tree is colored by rubbing rice straws on it. The hard frame is made with a wild-walnut tree, and a simple tin ornament is added. The mouse's-tail-shaped lock in the center alone is not enough to fasten the long door; therefore a small fastening iron was added.
