ALLEN, ANTHONY JOHN

Allen's Introduction to Later Chinese Porcelain

Allen's Enterprises Ltd, New Zealand. 1996, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0473038366). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 22 x 31 cm; 1,3 Kg; 222 pages with colour illustrations throughout.; Used with minor signs of wear. Front cover slightly faded on top.; Chinese porcelain of the period 1820 through 1920, to date has been the province of a minority of academic authors and a few adventurous dealers and collectors. This misunderstood but fascinating field of study is now brought within the reach of the average collector. Written with interests of novice collectors and dealers in mind, superbly illustrated in colour throughout, each of the introductory chapters conclude with suggestions for further reading, thus providing a fast but solid grounding for the primary focus of the book: dating of later Chinese porcelains. This book discusses marks, reign marks, footrims, glazes, bubbles, flaws and imperfections and other indications of a date of manufacture, including the contentious subjects of "hollow line" and the "reversed S"; illustrating in close-up many of the features used by the author to substantiate his assertions. Unashamedly provocative, Allen concludes with chapters on those subjects which most earlier writers have previously treated as "taboo", including "Modern Fakes and Their Detection", "Buying Tips in Asia" and "Recommendations for Investments". Very Good/Dust Jacket Included.

ALLEN, ANTHONY JOHN

Allen's Authentication of Later Chinese Porcelain (1796ad - 1999ad)

Allen's Enterprises Ltd, New Zealand. 2000, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0473065827). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 22 x 31 cm; 1,5 Kg; 264 pages with colour illustrations throughout.; Used with minor signs of wear. Interior as new.; Allen's Authentication of Later Chinese Porcelain continues on from the earlier Allen's Introduction to Later Chinese Porcelain, in a more detailed examination of aspects of dating; providing even the novice collector or dealer with information, dating techniques and illustrations, which would otherwise take yours to learn. The focus of the work is primarily on the dating of porcelain made between the beginning of the Jiaqing reign in 1796AD, and ending in the penultimate year of the 20th century, 1999. As many of the porcelains made in this 200 year period were copies of earlier periods, there are also a number of illustrations of genuine porcelain and pottery pieces made in the late Ming and earlier Qing dynasties, i.e. prior to 1796AD. Progressing chronologically through the late Qing dynasty reigns of Jianqing through Xuantong, this book examines porcelain of the Republic period (1912 to 1949), and then the Mao and post-Mao period of the People's Republic of China; before concluding with a preliminary look at the dating of Chinese redwares, and details of the author's visit to Jingdezhen in 1998. With over 480 full colour illustrations, not only of the items but their backs and undersides, close-ups of marks, footrims and glazes, this book was the most detailed English language text to on the dating of Chinese porcelain of this period at the time it was published. The author's often blunt and provocative commentary will undoubtedly offend some quarters of the Asian art world. But collectors for generations to come will thank him for his advice on detecting the bane of every collector«s life - the Chinese porcelain fake made intentionally to deceive. Near Fine/Dust Jacket Included.

Arthur, Paul:

French Art Nouveau Ceramics: an illustrated dictionary.

April 2015, (23 x 30 cm), 400 pp. English text, 900 ills., hardcover with dustjacket.
¶ This book is a unique and comprehensive illustrated dictionary of French Art Nouveau Ceramics. A census conducted in 1901 indicated the existence of some 209 producers of pottery in France, employing a total of around 5,800 full-time labourers. This great activity stimulated a parallel development in the arts, including the search for new expressions in art pottery, giving birth to l'art nouveau, a great and eclectic synthesis of a number of other art styles. Largely through British arts and crafts, and the work of artists like the Manxman Archibald Knox, it reached far back into the prehistory of Celtic art. To this were added later medieval elements, through the gothic revival championed by William Morris. The need for renewal, breaking away from the neo-Classical and academia, which was realm of the upper-class culture, was largely theorised by John Ruskin, who searched elsewhere for inspiration. Thus did British art nouveau also partake of Chinese and Japanese styles, though never in so forceful a manner as did the French aesthetic. France, on the one side, looked back to the swirling and frivolous eighteenth century Rococo, primarily through the influence of the Goncourt brothers, Edmond and Jules, influential aesthetes of the mid nineteenth century. The book focuses especially on artists working stoneware or gre's, faience, and terracotta. It aims to provide a general survey of the many artists working in these areas, and includes brief accounts of the ceramics work of sculptors and painters whose wider output is already well know.

Delft - Joan Blaeu, 1649

THE CITY OF DELFT "Delfi Batavorum vernacule Delft", copper engraving, published in Amsterdam by Joan Blaeu in 1649. Size (print) 37,7 x 48,5 cm. Coloured by a later hand. Verso: Latin description of Delft. Until the 17th century, Delft was one of the major cities of Holland. Already in 1400, the city had 6500 inhabitants and was the third largest in size, after Dordrecht (8000) and Haarlem (7000). In 1560 Amsterdam with 28,000 inhabitants had become the largest city, followed by Delft, Leiden and Haarlem, each of which had about 14,000 inhabitants. In the 17th century, Delft experienced a new heyday. A Chamber of the VOC was established in Delft. The city sent a fleet to Southeast Asia three times a year, importing spices, Chinese porcelain and other luxury goods. The tradition of Delftware originated from the import of Chinese porcelain, with an extensive pottery industry. During the Eighty Years' War, Delft became a center of resistance against the Spanish, after several cities and territories managed to evade Spanish authority in the 1570s. Prince William of Orange briefly resided in Delft, in the former Sint-Agatha monastery, which has since been called Prinsenhof. After William of Orange was declared an outlaw by King Philip II, he was also murdered there by Balthasar Gerards in 1584. William of Orange is buried in the Nieuwe Kerk, clearly visible on the map on the market square. After William of Orange, 45 members of the House of Orange and the House of Orange-Nassau were buried in the royal crypt. This map was published after the Peace of Münster (1648) as part of Joan Blaeu's town book of the Netherlands "Novum Ac Magnum Theatrum Urbium Belgicae Liberae Ac Foederatae". The Amsterdam cartographer and publisher Joan Blaeu set himself the task of simultaneously achieving the objectives of Abraham Ortelius (famous for the publication of the first modern atlas in 1578) and Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg (known for their town book published at the end of 1600): a multi-volume world atlas added by a number of town books. The town book of the United Netherlands was published in a Latin edition in 1649; the Dutch edition was printed in 1652. Some of the maps included in this work had already been published in older maps, other maps were made entirely new for Blaeu's town book. Price: Euro 1.850,- (incl. frame)

Canepa, Teresa:

Silk, Porcelain and Lacquer. China and Japan and their Trade with Western Europe and the New World. 1500-1644.

10 2016, 24,5 x 30 cm., 480 pp., 386 colour ills., hardcover.
¶ Focusing on the prolific trade, transport and consumption of Chinese silk and porcelain and Japanese lacquer between 1500 and 1644, this groundbreaking book will show how the material cultures of late Ming China and Momoyama/Early Edo Japan on one side of the globe, and western Europe and the New World on the other, became linked for the first time, through an exchange of luxury Asian manufactured goods for currency (silver). It offers new insight into these multi-layered long-distance commercial networks, which resulted in an unprecedented creation of material culture that reflected influences of both East and West. _Original research reveals new evidence of the trade of these three Asian manufactured goods, first by Portugal and Spain, and later by the trading companies formed by the Northern Netherlands/Dutch Republic and England. Important documentary information is brought to light concerning, for example, the use of Chinese porcelain in western Europe, and the objects made to order in European shapes for the Dutch and English trading companies in Japan and China. The study also sheds light on both the trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific commercial trading networks through which these Asian goods circulated, as well as the way in which these goods were acquired, used and appreciated by the Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch and English societies in western Europe and the multi-ethnic societies of the European colonies in the New World and Asia. _300 illustrations of extant examples of Chinese silks and porcelains, along with Japanese lacquers of the period, complement the information gleaned from archival and textual material. In the case of Chinese porcelain, a large number of the examples illustrated are provided by archaeological finds from European shipwrecks, survival campsites, colonial settlements in Asia, the New World and the Caribbean, and their respective mother countries in western Europe. _Breaking new ground in its comparative study of the impact these European trading empires or companies had on the material cultures of China and Japan, this book shows the influence that the European merchants and missionaries exerted on the goods made specifically to order for them in both China and Japan. It also traces the worldwide circulation of these luxury objects, which were intended for secular and religious use in European settlements in Asia, and their respective mother countries in western Europe and colonies in the New World. More importantly, this book shows that these specific orders led to the creation of a wide variety of hybrid manufactured goods in both China and Japan, which combined elements from very different and distant cultures, reflecting the fascinating and complex East-West cultural exchanges that occurred in the early modern period

The Hollow Line in Dating Chinese Porcelains

Chinese Art Appraisers Association, San Francisco. 1978, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0930940032). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text.; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 19 x 26.5 cm; 0.7 Kg; 120 pages with black and white illustrations throughout.; Used with signs of wear on the dust jackect. Interior in very good condition.; This publication is a study of late Ch'ing Dynasty porcelain. The hollow line is the author's discovery and terminology for an outstanding peculiarity of underglaze blue that is seen with increasing frequency during the late 19th and early 20th century. The question arises: If a good quality porcelain with a 17th century reign mark has hollow lines, how should the piece be dated? This volume is an introduction to a larger and more comprehensive comparision of prototypes and later products in the forthcoming book Dating Chinese Ceramics. This presentation is not a interpretation of porcelain characteristics but is a record of the observations through many years of Calvin Chou. Illustrated specimens come from museums and private collections in the Far East, United States and Europe. Very Good/Dust Jacket Included.

CORBEILLER, CLARE LE (AUTHOR); PHILLIPS, JOHN GOLDSMITH (FOREWORD)

China Trade Porcelain: Patterns of Exchange. Additions to the Helena Woolworth Mccann Collection in the Metropolitan Museum of Art

The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. 1974, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0870990896). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 22.5 x 28 cm; 0.9 Kg; 134 pages with black and white illustrations.; Used with signs of wear, namely on the dust jacket. Interior in very good condition. The dust jacket is now protected with a clearcover.; At the crest of the long commerce between China and the West in the mid-to late eighteenth century, Chinese porcelain was eagerly acquired by Western rulers, statesmen, leading families, and others alert for the novel. Its primary appeal was that it could be designed to order, and when it came off the trade ships a season or two later, many of the pieces - sometimes entire dinner sets - were decorated with family armorials, images still topical, or designs more or less freely reproduced from drawings or engravings sent to China the year before. Recent interest in China trade porcelain has brought to light significant new examples of this ware. The present study deals with fifty-two pieces or groups of pieces added since 1955 to the Metropolitan Museum's well-known Helena Woolworth McCann Collection of China Trade Porcelain. Dating from the early sixteenth to the mid-nineteenth century, these tapersticks, cups, pitchers, plates, dishes, and tureens tell us a good deal about the growth of European interest in the ware, how Western tastes in design changed, how the makers' skills and techniques took them from blue-and-white ware through grisaille and famille rose painting to polychrome plus gilt, and how the shapes of porcelain reflected in some cases the direct influences of European metalwork and glassware. All fifty-two additions to the collection are comprehensively illustrated - nearly a quarter of them are shown in color - and numerous views of comparable pieces in other collections are included, as well as the original pictorial sources for many of the painted decorations.

Chinese Armorial Porcelain for Spain

2010, (24,7 x 30,5 cm), 416 pp., English text, 429 colour ills., hardcover.
¶ is the first book published on the subject of armorial porcelain made in China specifically for the Spanish market. It includes important new documentation and information unearthed after years of methodical research by the author. From the 16th century onwards, Spain was a dominant force in European trade from China. First through the Manila Galleons (Spanish trade ships that criss-crossed the Pacific Ocean sailing from Manila to Acapulco) and later through an eastern trade route that traversed the Indian and Atlantic oceans, Spanish traders imported large quantities of Chinese porcelain to Spain and New Spain. Much of these wares were armorial porcelain intended for Spanish Royal and aristocratic patrons. This publication examines and discusses seventy-three different Chinese export porcelain pieces or dinner services made for the Spanish market as well as provides interesting information on the historical, political and sociological world at the time including insights into the individuals that ordered these objects from China.
