This wonderful Reeves Center collection of Chinese Export porcelain has been brought to life in a lavish hardback catalogue containing 280 of the some of the finest pieces ever produced over three centuries for the Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, French, English and American markets.
"This is the book that Chinese Export porcelain collectors and admirers have been anticipating eagerly .. and it has proved itself well worth the wait. Beautifully photographed and clearly designed with the objects sensitively illustrated in proper scale..", says Letitia Roberts, former Senior VP and director of European Ceramics and Chinese Export Porcelain, Sotheby's, New York.
As David Howard writes in the preface, the Reeves Center is a rich resource for 'all those who value the history, commercial acumen, painstaking art, and sheer romance of Chinese Export porcelain'.
