This fully illustrated and researched catalogue commemorates an
exhibition of over 200 pieces of Chinese and related ceramics
collected within the members of the Oriental Ceramic Society of
London. The selection spans the complete range from Neolithic to
contemporary ceramics, from minor kilns in many different regions
to the major kilns working for the court, and from pieces of
academic interest to world-famous masterpieces. It privileges
unusual and rarely seen artifacts and avoids well known, repetitive
designs such as that of the dragon, which is so firmly identified
with China that it has become a cliche of Chinese art. It also aims
to demonstrate the vast variety of wares and the inventiveness of
Asian potters well beyond the classic confines. Text in English and
Chinese.
