I-hsing ware is highly prized by the Chinese for its natural clay colors, simplicity of design, and elegance of execution. This exhibition is mainly concerned with top quality pieces that are particularly associated with scholars and artists. These pieces, made by the famous potters of I-hsing, are extremely rare and have long been treasured and collected by the Chinese. They were produced in small quantities, and are rarely found outside China. I-hsing ware has therefore received little attention in the West. In American museums, there are imperial porcelains by the thousands, but fine quality I-hsing pieces number fewer than one hundred." excerpt from the introduction. Good/No Jacket.
