DEBOMY, PIERRE L.; HOWARD, DAVID S. (PREFACE); MOINET, ÉRIC (INTRODUCTION)
Tobacco Leaf and Pseudo/Feuille de Tabac Et Pseudo. A Tentative Inventory/Tentative D'Inventaire
La Société des Amis du Musée national de Céramique Sèvres, France. 2013, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 9782954500805). Soft cover. Book, English and French text; Paperback; 21.6 x 22.7 cm; 0.99 Kg; 290 pages with various colour images.; STILL WRAPPED IN PLASTIC.; "Tobacco Leaf" and "Pseudo Tobacco Leaf" constitute a family of motifs that were created in China and, starting in 1765, were used for a century to decorate porcelains destined for export to Europe (mainly Portugal and probably England) and Brazil. The total number of Tobacco Leaf and Pseudo motifs in existence is unknown. This study, the only one on this subject currently in existence, looks at 38 of these motifs (10 Tobacco Leaf and Pseudo) as well as 21 variations on them (12 Tobacco Leaf and 9 Pseudo). After describing the various elements that make up the different families of motifs, the motifs themselves are then studied one by one with the aid of the 400 color photographs that illustrate the the work. To make the identification easier, the author uses a system of letters and numbers to denote the different patterns. This book, bilingual in English and French, is published by the Société des Amis du musée national de Céramique. The preface is by David Howard and the introduction by Eric Moinet, Director of the Sèvres Ceramics Museum, Cité de la céramique Sèvres & Limoges. New.

Blanc de Chine: The Porcelain of Têhua in Fukien
Faber and Faber Limited, London. 1969, 1st Edition. Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 407 pages plus appendix with 160 black and white plates; 17 x 25.7 cm; 1.229 Kg; SBN 571 08078 2; Used book with signs of wear on the dust jacket. Minor signs of wear on the interior, which looks as new. The dust jacket is now protected with a clearcover.; REFERENCE BOOK ON BLANC DE CHINE; Blanc de chine, the white porcelain of Têhua in fukien, has waited long for its chronicler. This most beautiful of porcelains, satisfying entirely by form and glaze, so elusive to date, enjoys wide appeal. But collectors and others interested have up to now had to rest content with a page or so of general praise and description in the standard works on Chinese ceramics, for there has been no complete book on this subject. This deficiency is now made good. The author, with the advantage of an unrivalled collection of the ware itself, has devoted years of research into sources, Chinese and Western, the fruits of which are now available. The evidence for dating-textual, from marks and inscriptions and, above all, from recorded acquisitions - is given in detail. More than 500 pieces are illustrated, indicative of the unparalleled variety of form which blanc de Chine can assume. Marks hitherto thought undecipherable are studied, and nearly a hundred reproduced in facsimile. Potters and potter families have been discovered, and their work is discussed. There is a chapter also on the coloured ware of these kilns, including the little-know blue and white. Some original Chinese sources are appended, together with an account of recent archaeological investigation of the kiln sites and an abstract of the original inventory of Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony, now at Dresden, contained innumerable pieces of blanc de Chine.

Reviews from previous editions: "The book is written carefully and readably, with ample references for statements and quotations, and the hundred plates show examples of all periods, including productions from Japanese, Korean and Chinese provincial factories. Whoever has a collection of Oriental blue-and-white porcelain, or contemplates the formation of one, can have no better guide than this volume". from Apollo.; "Packed with information. The treatment is historical but special sections deal with the provincial or export types, and with the evidence for dating to be obtained on one hand from inscriptions and on the other hand from technical characteristics. Indeed, the work is to be specially commended for the clarity and precision of the remarks on the materials and processes used in the manufacture of the porcelains discussed, and of the effects visible in the different wares." from Connoisseur.; From a review of the third edition: "No student of the applied arts of China can afford to let this edition pass by; it stands in as important a position now as did the first edition 17 years ago. Would that all specialists in this controversial field could view their work so dispassionately and comment with such profit."

GODDEN, GEOFFREY A.
Oriental Export Market Porcelain and Its Influence on European Wares
Granada Publishing Limited, London. 1979, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0246110570). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (with dust jacket); 22.2 x 24.2 cm, 1.462 Kg; 384 pages with colour and black and white illustrations; Dust jacket wrapped in a permanent adhesive cover, showing signs of wear. The dust jacket is price clipped. Signed by the author on front free endpaper. The interior of the book is in good condition.; Geoffrey Godden is widely celebrated for his knowledge of English ceramics but in the course of his distinguished career he has handled as much Chinese porcelain as English. He is therefore ideally qualified to present this definitive account of the wares made by eighteen-century Chinese potters for the European market, particularly as he stresses the close interplay between Oriental and European ceramics. His research on the subject has been exceptionally wide-ranging, and the majority of resources quoted in this volume are published here for the first time. They include extracts from the English East India Company records, ship's logs of the "East Indiamen" who carried on the trade and the results of the many china-wares sales held in London. There is a chapter on Japanese wares, for in the early eighteen century, nearly as much Japanese as Chinese porcelain was imported. There is also a section on the American trade in Oriental export porcelain. The extensive and carefully chosen illustrations combined with the authoritative and sometimes challenging text make this an invaluable book for collectors and students of porcelain. Good/Dust Jacket Included. Signed by Author(s).

The interior is in very good condition. The dust jacket is now protected with a clearcover.; Translated from the French by Katherine Watson.; A magnificent book by the chargée de mission at the Guimet Museum in Paris on the most exquisite form of pottery: Ming porcelain. Highlighted by hundreds of first-rate reproductions, drawings of emblems, symbols and potter's marks, it traces the origins of this art from 1368, the year the Ming Dynasty was founded, and the great Imperial porcelain factory of Ching-tê Chên was built. For almost three centuries Ching-tê Chên remained the prestigious pottery center in China, causing the decline of the celadon green ceramics of the Sung Dynasty. The new master potters developed a distinct style that was once colorful and severe, meticulous and extraordinarily inventive. They excelled in both under-glazed and over-glaze patterns and designs that became legendary in their own time. But perhaps the most precious of all Ming porcelain art was the 'eggshell" wares which the Chinese called "bodiless" because of their almost ethereal thinness. A chronological table, a bibliography, a glossary of Chinese terms and an index complete this brilliant survey of a major Chinese art form, and a triumph of modern bookmaking. Very Good/No Jacket.

Signs of wear on the front cover, spine and back cover. The interior is in good condition with minor signs of wear.; "The object of this book is to put before those interested in the early Chinese wares, information which will be of service to them at different stages of their collecting. I have given expression to a feeling that has always possessed me during my studies of the subject, and that is the necessity of a general understanding of the history of the country if a proper conception of its art is to be obtained. For this reason I have occupied some space in setting out, in the early section of the book, the main features which mark the various dynastic epochs: I fancy that, if the historical facts there described are kept in mind, the collector will find much less difficulty in unravelling the ceramic problems which confront him. In selecting the illustrations I have followed a somewhat unusual course. The specimens chosen, with one or two exceptions, are not the rarest and most costly examples, nor are they taken from the great National Museums. I have illustrated typical pieces of good quality in the possession of private collectors. The ordinary person, in my opinion, wants to see the kind of thing he may hope to acquire for himself. For convenience the half-tone plates have been grouped at the end of the chapters to which they relate. In each case the name of the collector to whom the specimen belongs is named.

NEAVE-HILL, W.B.R.; GARNER, HARRY SIR (FOREWORD)
Chinese Ceramics
John Bartholomew & Son Limited, Edinburgh&London. 1975, 1st Edition. (ISBN: 0702810215). Hardcover, with dust jacket. Book, English text; Hardcover (cloth with dust jacket); 21.8 x 30.6 cm; 0.876 Kg; 176 pages with black and white and colour illustrations.; Used book in good condition with signs of wear in the dust jacket, minor signs of wear in text and the author signature glued to the copyright page. Dust jacket now protected with a clearcover. INCLUDES LOOSE LETTER HANDWRITTEN BY THE AUTHOR DATED FROM 1975; In Chinese Ceramics the author has summarised the main features of Chinese Ceramic development from the Neolithic pottery of 2000 B.C. to the enamelled porcelain of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. If there is any special emphasis, it lies in the very full treatment of the beautiful monochrome wares of the Sung Dynasty, a subject which the author has specially studied. The Sung dynasty is rightly regarded as the classical age of Chinese ceramics, and the Sung Wares, often undecorated and relying entirely on form, colour, and texture for their appeal, are supreme achievements of the potter's art. But the earlier less sophisticated and the later highly decorative wares all have their masterpieces, many of which are described and illustrated in this book. Throughout Chinese history foreign influence has had a decisive effect on the arts. Sometimes this influence has been a by-product of Chinese imperialism, sometimes a result of foreign incursion; but in neither case have the influences engulfed the native Chinese Art. To understand these influences some knowledge of Chinese is desirable. The author, as a professional historian, is well able to deal with this problem and a valuable feature of the book is the setting of the ceramics of each period against their historical background.
