About this product

Product Information

How were Chinese pots made, glazed and fired? Why did China discover porcelain more than one thousand years before the West? What are the effects of China's influence on world ceramics? These questions (and many more) are answered in this lavishly-illustrated history of Chinese ceramic technology. The scene is set through the use of historical texts, archaeological excavation, and the principles of ceramic science. Chapters follow on the formation of clays and their relation to the underlying geologies of China, on firing, on manufacturing methods and sequences, on glazes, pigments and gilding, and on the impact of Chinese ceramic technology around the world, from the seventh to the twenty-first centuries. This is a volume unique in its coverage, which brings together research materials in several languages for the first time. With additional contributions by Ts'ai Mei-fen (National Palace Museum, Taipei) and Zhang Fukang (Shanghai Institute of Ceramics).

    Superb service. My book was dispatched the day I placed the order and came very well packaged, arriving the following day. The book itself was in fine condition, exactly as described. I recommend this seller very highly indeed. Great communication and a faultless transaction. Thank you.

    Exactly as described and very nicely packaged. New book was wrapped and packaged in a way where it didn't suffer any bumps, bruises or scratches from insufficient packaging, nor was it wrapped excessively. Fast delivery and very happy overall.

    Could not have asked for a better service. The books were beautifully packaged, arrived in mint condition and were exactly as described. On top of that the price requested was excellent value. This book seller deserves to be supported as the service provided was nothing short of excellent.
