The interior is in very good condition.; Cloisonné is an enamelware decoration made with colored glass enamels outlined in fine wares. Primarily used for ornamentation of vases, boxes, and trays, this art originated in ancient Greece, then traveled across the Asian continent to Japan, where it reached the peak of its development in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Interestingly, once this art form reached its zenith in popularity, it fell from grace and was considered by most collectors a curious and intricate aberration of the Japanese sensibility. Today, however, Japanese cloisonné is growing more popular and is a subject of antique research. Nearly a decade has passed… Read More

Interior in very good condition.; Limited edition of 2,000 copies of which this is 793.; Among the arts of Japan, the colour print continues to exercise the strongest appeal to us in the West. The main reason for the present widespread and growing interest is the powerful design combined with the beauty of the colour harmonies of the prints. But there are also other reasons; they depict a Japan of the past now almost vanished, its culture, mores, annual events, legends and its history; and they also show the influence of the Japanese print on the evolution of modern Western art. In the last few years the most important event in the world of… Read More

Charles E. Tuttle Company, Rutland, Vermont & Tokyo, Japan, 1971 Book. Good. Hardcover. 1st Edition. English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 16 x 22 cm; 0.955 Kg; 256 pages with 286 illustrations; Used book with signs of wear. The dust jacket is protected with a clearcover.; Of all the forms of art in Japan, that of pottery is perhaps the best illustration of the Japanese feeling for individuality. Japanese porcelains do not show this as pottery does; porcelains often follow stereotyped shapes and patterns. But the two together go far in sustaining Japan's reputation as the cultural melting pot of the Orient. Through her love for simplicity and naturalness, Japan has contributed much to the world's ceramic art. The nation, however, owes a great debt to older cultures, as this attractive and authoritative book points out. Four great culture waves swept over Japan's little islands, deeply influencing her ceramic art. The first was that of the T'ang dynasty (618-907) and the Sung… Read More

Sackler Gallery, January 31-November 28, 1993.; The Gemlike beauty of multicoloured enamel decoration on white porcelain - sometimes akin to painting, sometimes echoing the rich texture of silk brocades, lacquers, and cloisonne - is the focus of this volume of seventy-nine Chinese porcelains of the Ming and Qing dynasties drawn from renowned collections of members of the Min Chiu Society, Hong Kong. Although polychrome porcelain is most often examined from the perspectives of authenticity, dating, and stylistic development, this study addresses the crucial issue of meaning.
