Förlagets beskrivning
Dehua porcelain, or Blanc de Chine as it is known in the West, is pure
ivory-white porcelain made at the Dehua kilns in the southern Chinese province
of Fujian. It rose to international significance in the 17th century and
inspired aristocratic patronage in the development of European porcelain. Its
popularity at home and abroad continued and the kilns at Dehua remain prolific
to this day. This is the first comprehensive publication since P. J. Doherty's
pioneering study thirty years ago. An international group of specialists
discuss how, why and when the Dehua porcelain phenomenon occurred. The book
also contains a catalogue of the important Hickley Collection in Singapore.
Each piece is illustrated in beautiful full colour photography. Rose Kerr
