"Chinese glazes have long presented a technical challenge to Western potters, and this book is the most complete account yet of their nature and their reconstruction. The story of Chinese glazes is also the story of Chinese ceramics itself - one of the most fascinating and influential traditions in ceramic history."--BOOK JACKET.
"Chinese Glazes traces the development of China's great high-fired glaze tradition from its roots in the Bronze Age, through the famous monochrome stoneware glazes of the Song dynasty, to the fine porcelain glazes of southern China. The book also examines in detail the story of China's low-fired glazes, from the time of China's first emperor to the present day."--BOOK JACKET.
"This book is a must not only for potters wishing to replicate Chinese glazes but for anyone interested in the fascinating history of Chinese ceramics."--BOOK JACKET.
