"The exhibits contributed by the Guangdong Provincial Museum to the present exhibition are all drawn from archaeological finds in the last thirty years. Most of the major dwelling and burial sites have been included, especially the site at Shishia of Maba town, Qujiang county, said to have heralded a new era in Neolithic archaeology in Guangdong, is represented by no least than eighteen items. The exhibits from Hong Kong are primarily selected from local excavations, supplemented by a few examples of pottery and bronze collected by Mr. Raphael Maglioni in eastern Guangdong. Together these one hundred exhibits should be able to demonstrate the life of the Guangdong people and the level of their material culture in pre-Qin times. They can also serve as basis for the study of the cultural relationship to developments in Central China" excerpt from the foreword by Mayching Kao, The Art Gallery, The Chinese University of Honk Kong.

Hard bound. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. First Edition. Catalogue of an important donation of 32 fine examples of Ming and Qing ceramics to the Art Museum of the Chinese University. Of particular interest is the fact that all examples illustrated bear unique studio ("hall") marks on their bases, rather than the mo…re typically encountered date/reign marks. Such vessels were produced not only for imperial usage, but also for other members of the aristocracy, eminent scholars, high officials and even famous potters. Detailed descriptions, in bilingual English / Chinese, not only describe the objects but also explore the meaning and origin behind each studio mark. 75 pp., 75 col. plates, index of marks, bibliography.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Included. English text.; Hardcover (with dust jacket in slipcase).; 24.5 x 31 cm.; 2 kg.; 255 pages with colour illustrations.; Used with signs of wear on the exterior and interior. The slipcase shows signs of wear and is faded on the sides and is cloth is slightly ungluing at the bottom.…The dust jacket shows wear marks, edge wear, scuffs and scratches, small tear at the bottom of the spine, the edges are slightly bumped. Interior with wear marks, namely on the first and last gilded pages. Pen written signature and dedication to previous owner.; Snuff, a powdered tobacco often enhanced with aromatic essences and spices, was imported into China during the mid 17th century. In order to prevent humidity getting into the snuff, bottles for holding snuff were specially made to replace the small medicine bottles used previously. Through continuous development of forms, workmanship and the use of materials throughout the reigns of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong, the bottles had branched out as a distinguished art form. This miniature art which encompasses organic materials, metal, nephrite, stones, glass and ceramics and decorated with all art forms and motifs is a microcosm of the entire traditional Chinese culture as well as their superior artistry. The 139 bottles in this catalogue are selected from the Humphrey K.F.Hui Collection, sharing a collective theme of "Court-related". All the bottles possess the provenance of the Qing Emperors and their entourage, including the court officials. 86 pieces are with imperial poems or inscriptions, reign marks, imperial and private hall marks and are valuable documentary pieces in the study of Chinese snuff bottles.

Interior in very… good condition with minor signs of wear.; "Over the past three decades, the majority of J. S.'s collection had been generously donated in the name of Bei Shan Tang to the Art Museum in many batches. Comprising of more than 5,800 items, these gifts form nearly half of the permanent collection of the Art Museum. They are both the core and the highlight of the Museum's collection. This exhibition of The Bei Shan Tang Legacy - Gifts of Chinese Art is a selection of the most important items of the gifts from J. S. They include paintings, calligraphy, calligraphic rubbings, ceramics, jade and hard stone carvings to bronzes, seals, and carvings in bamboo, wood, ivory and bone, inksticks, items for the scholars' studio and furniture. The exhibition, to be installed in all the four galleries of the Art Museum, is a tribute to J. S. for his generosity and lifelong support to the Museum. It is also an unprecedented comprehensive display of the collection which is well known to many by its reputation. But because of the modesty and low profile of J. S. few actually have had a first-hand knowledge of it." excerpt from the introductory text by Peter Y. K. Lam Director, Art Museum, 2009.

Hard bound. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: new. First Edition. The present catalogue brings together important material for the understanding of one of China's most brilliant innovations -- that of porcelain with cobalt underglaze decoration, otherwise known as 'blue & white' china. In recent years there have been major…advances in this field of study, both as a result of archaeological work undertaken in and around Jingdezen, the center of production of such wares for over 600 years, and also the recovery of large hoards of ancient Chinese ceramics from trade vessels sunken in past dynasties. The present catalogue illustrates and describes some 140 vessels, dating from the Yuan to late Ming periods, originating both from Imprerial ateliiers and folk & trade productions. Based on recently recovered material and stylistic analysis, the authors, renowned scholars in the field, update the chronology of these wares. Includes a lengthy appendix listing dated blue & white wares in museums in China and worldwide. An essential reference. Bilingual English/Chinese text. 238 pp., 221 col. and 27 b&w photos, map, chronology, bibliography. *** PLEASE NOTE - THIS VOLUME IS HEAVY AND MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL POSTAGE. *** Size: 29 x 21 cm.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
