Over the years I have received many, many requests for information, regarding the underlying back- ground which will explain the pictures that we see on snuff bottles. In my own small way I have tried to offer such explanations from time to time and the results have appeared in several places. Now, here, for the first time, is gathered together in one small volume the information for which collectors have been clamouring for years. Few people know that Raymond's parents at one time owned and operated their own kiln at the famous Ching-Te Chen porcelain centre in the Kianghsi Province of China. Born into this atmosphere of Chinese creativity Raymond's association with and love of Chinese art, together with his serious scholarship has eminently qualified him for his self-imposed task of throwing this long-needed light on a particularly fascinating subject.
