Old Chinese Porcelain (Classic Reprint) by Egan Mew Pdf

Excerpt from Old Chinese Porcelain The middle vase is a Kang-he example of sprinkled blue decorated with various marine objects. The larger fishes are in red; the smaller designs in gold show other fish delicately drawn swimming through weeds and waves. In most specimens of powdered blue the gold designs are worn away to some extent. It was applied after the piece had been through various processes and another exposure to the oven might have proved a disaster. But in its worn form this over-glaze design adds depth and mystery to the already fathomless blue. The bottles seen on either side are also of the Kang-he period, and show characteristic coloured enamel decoration in reserves of white. These groups of owers and rocks and the various popular symbols show very effectively against the powdered.

Excerpt from Chinese Porcelain, Vol. 1 In addition to the works quoted from, there are others in both this and the French language, many of which might have been used with advantage; but to have employed them would have extended the size of this little volume beyond the limit of a hand-book, which it has already somewhat exceeded. Mr. T. J. Larkin has been good enough to read through the proofs, and the notes he has kindly appended the reader will find add greatly to the value of the work. Thanks are also due to Mr. Arbuthnot, of Shanghai, for sundry Chinese books. In conclusion, it only remains to thank Mr. Charles H. Read for kindly consenting to this book being dedicated to the memory of his old friend Sir W ellaston Franks.

Chinese Porcelain, Vol. 2 (Classic Reprint) by W. G. Gulland Pdf

Excerpt from Chinese Porcelain, Vol. 2 In the sixteenth century porcelain was so highly esteemed in Europe that many pieces were mounted in silver, and it is reasonable to suppose that the best specimens were selected for this honour. N ow, except, perhaps, where historical value attaches, as in the case of the Trenchard and Warham bowls, the mountings, as samples of early silver work, are of more value than the china they were originally designed to protect and ornament. The reason for this being that much finer porcelain has since come to hand; while to give value, artistic merit is necessary, as well as mere antiquity; and in the former qualification the Ming productions have been greatly distanced by the Tsing.

Catalogue of Coloured Chinese Porcelain, Exhibited in 1896 (Classic Reprint) by Burlington Fine Arts Club Pdf

Excerpt from Catalogue of Coloured Chinese Porcelain, Exhibited in 1896 They include plain white, which, when glazed and not meant to be decorated, is usually of an ivory tint with a soft satiny glaze, but the glaze is sometimes of a bluish or greenish-grey tint, and at others the pieces are covered with an almost pure white opaque enamel. In the' History of King-te-chin, different whites are described as, of the moon, of flour, and of snow. Sometimes the paste is left unglazed, but of this class the Exhibition contains but one example, the beautiful little plaque, with landscape and figures in relief, belonging to Mr. Cock, which will be found in the small Case devoted to small pieces.

A Sketch of the History of Ceramic Art in China by Alfred Edward Hippisley Pdf

Excerpt from A Sketch of the History of Ceramic Art in China: With a Catalogue of the Hippisley Collection of Chinese Porcelains Is. W. Bushell, Chinese Porcelain before the Present Dynasty, Nos. 33, 80, 18. With the sole exception of the Nanfeng ware, and a portion of that from Linch'uan, produced during the Yiian dynasty, none of which seems to have survived to the present day, but which is described as having been decorated with flowers coarsely painted under the glaze, I can find nothing in the works Of Chinese writers on this subject to justify the concession of a greater antiquity than the early part Of the Ming dynasty - that is, the first half of the fifteenth century to the ornamentation of vases with arabesques and scroll work, with land scapes, historical scenes, or genre paintings in several colors.

The Pottery and Porcelain Factories of China by A. L. Hetherington Pdf

Excerpt from The Pottery and Porcelain Factories of China: Their Geographical Distribution and Periods of Activity As a student of Chinese ceramics and of the early wares in particular, I felt the want of a map which showed where the chief centres of production were placed, so I worked out with as much accuracy as possible a map to serve the purpose.
