Description:
Hong Kong: Chinese University of HK, 2001. A massive and definitive work on the art and technology of ancient glass in China. While glass was also imported into early China from the Middle East, Chinese glass technology seems to have developed independently and domestic products are significantly different in design, function and chemical composition. Objects discussed and illustrated date from the Warring States period to the Qing, a range of some 2,000 years in total. Early Chinese beads are particularly spectacular; other production included ritual and burial objects, adornments such as pendants, belts and ear ornaments, seals and vessels. Essays and descriptions in Chinese, with two important essays on chemical and EDXRF analysis of glass samples in English. All captions bilingual English/Chinese. 518 pp., over 480 colour photos and hundreds of b&w drawings, chronology, map, bibliography. Light tape residue marks on endpapers; slight spotting on top fore-edges, otherwise a clean, unread copy.…
