Synopsis

This is an illustrated catalogue of a private collection. Beginning with a history of Chinese jades and their interpretation, detailed attention is then given to over 300 individual pieces from the Joseph Hotung collection, comparing them with specific jades from the collections of the British Museum. The illustrated catalogue section, divided chronologically and by shape of function,is followed by a bibliography of sources, both English and Chinese. This book can be used as a reference for academics, collectors and enthusiasts alike.
