This study examines an ancient Paiwan pottery vessel collected in the NTU Museum of Anthropology. In addition to observing the metal plate-based repair on the vessel, this study refers to similar repairs in East and West Asian regions such as China, the Korean Peninsula, Japan, and Turkey. Such repairs are used not only on ceramics but also on jade and glassware. Accordingly, metal plate-based repairs are a method that transcends time, region, and material. However, considering the circulation of the Paiwan pottery vessel, the repair may be related to ceramic repair techniques in Japan.
