Until relatively recently the collection covered a broad range of wares with a wide chronological span and with no one particular type having greater representation than the rest. This has changed, however, with the acquisition of the famous Carl Kempe collection, which is so rich in fine, high-fired, white wares of all periods and is especially strong in Tang and Song wares. This collection also enhanced other areas of the Museum's Chinese ceramic holdings, as well as adding some very fine Korean celadon stonewares of the Kõryo period including plain pieces, vessels with moulded or incised decoration such as the fine cup and cupstand (no. 1071), and pieces with black and white inlaid decoration like the small bottle decorated with peonies and butterflies, (no 1086). In all, the museum has an important collection of Chinese ceramics, which will provide enjoyment, interest and stimulation for all its visitors, be they scholars or those new to the subject.
