The Ceramics of China, 5000 B. C. to 1900 A. D.
Ceramics achieved such a high quality in China that the pieces came to be known simply by the country's name. A pair of antique dealers present some 400 color photographs of Chinese ceramics that are selected to illustrate the entire history of ceramic production from its earliest known instances. Introductory material describes the typical ceramic cultures of different time periods. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
