In the Han Dynasty, it was best to decorate tiles with animals. In addition to the four gods of Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu, there are rabbits, deer, cows and horses.

The ornamentation of tile in Han Dynasty was more exquisite. The four gods, Qinglong, Baihu, Suzaku and Xuanwu, in the Wangmang period, have both form and spirit and extraordinary strength, which are the representative works of this period. There are also various animal and plant patterns, such as tortoise pattern, mosquito pattern, leopard pattern, crane pattern, jade rabbit pattern, mosaic pattern and so on. Among the tiles in the Han dynasty, the number of Chinese tiles is the largest, which is characterized by the division of boundaries in shape, centering on nipples and beads, and the inscriptions are arranged in a fixed pattern, and change up and down, left and right within this range.

The number of characters varies, up to more than ten words, such as "Long live the Millennium", "Changle Weiyang", "Long life without borders" and "Yongfu". Fonts include Xiao Zhuan, Flower-Bird-Insect Zhuan, Lishu and Shu Zhen. With its dense layout and rough brushwork, it has become a unique collection of China pottery products.

Wadang in Han Dynasty inherited the tile shapes of Qin Dynasty and before, which were semi-circular and circular. Semi-circular tiles were popular in the early Han dynasty, and the shape changes of circular tiles are as follows: the style of tiles in the early Han dynasty is similar to that in Qin dynasty, and the characteristics are more obvious after Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. The tile surface is printed by die and pasted on the tile cylinder blank, so the tile surface is generally enlarged, the back is smooth, there is no trimming, the tile side wheel is wide and flat, and the texture is obviously better than that of Qin tile. The color of pottery is gray or light gray.
