Beginning with an introduction by Lu Yaw, who examines the evolution of the celadon tradition in China from its beginning to the Qing dynasty, the other six articles go on to explore celadons found in Europe, India and Sri Lanka, Brunei and Sarawak, and how the Chinese production of celadons impacted on the these wares made in other centres, such as Thailand, Korea and Japan.
