Chinese Glazes: Their Origins, Chemistry and Recreation

Editorial Reviews Choice Magazine In this extraordinary volume, Wood provides a window, an avenue perhaps, into the composition and techniques used by ancient Chinese potters to achieve superb glazes admired by potters all over the world. It is an exhaustive study of both high and low temperature glazes; in a clear, straightforward manner, Wood explains how old recipes can be transcribed for today's raw materials. In a well-documented text, beautifully illustrated by both color and black-and-white photographs, Wood describes Chinese ceramic development, from the Bronze Age through the Tang and Song dynasty monochrome stoneware glazes, to the fine porcelains of Southern China. A must-have volume not only for potters but for those seeking information on Chinese glazes.
