Discover ancient Chinese pottery in the Philippines and how it shaped a island world’s trade and taste.

This monograph traces early contacts between China and the Philippine Islands through the lens of ceramic ware. It examines dragon-jars and other Kuiang-yao glazes, the rise of Manila’s Chinese community, and the cultural exchange that followed. Rich in historical detail, it links material pieces to broader histories of trade, diplomacy, and daily life across centuries.

Readers will encounter a careful survey of kilns, glazes, and styles, with attention to how objects were used and valued by different cultures. The text situates Philippine pottery within Chinese ceramic traditions and considers how local myths and market demands influenced collection and attribution.

Descriptions of dragon-jars, celadons, and other wares found in Philippine collections.

Discussion of how trade with China grew and affected local industries and livelihoods.

Notes on possible sources and origins, including Kuang-yao kilns and influences from Fujian and Guangdong.

Explanations of stylistic features, glaze colors, and the historical context of contemporary collectors and scholars.

Ideal for readers of museum catalogs, readers with an interest in early cross‑cultural trade, and anyone curious about the material history of the Philippines.

Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
