Chinese Ceramics: The New Standard Guide

By He Li



This remarkable book cites the latest scientific and archaeological evidence, examining provenance, technique, archaeological and historical context, and ancient traditions of Chinese connoisseurship and patronage to provide an integrated and highly detailed approach to the subject. In over 700 colour photographs specially taken for this book, a wide range of imperial and regional, decorative and practical, export and domestic, ceremonial and funerary wares are fully represented. These are organized into four chronologically arranged sections, from the Neolithic to the end of the Qing dynasty, each accompanied by a survey of the period and detailed descriptions of the pieces illustrated. The notes on the plates are further illustrated with photographs of base marks, a vital aid in the identification process. An important reference section include: a glossary of technical terms, complete with Chinese characters; a bibliography; and list of major collections.

Paperback, 352 pages, over 700 colour photographs, ISBN: 050028623X.

This book is an indispensable resource for all collectors, connoisseurs and students of Chinese ceramics, as well as anyone with an interest in Asia’s rich cultural heritage.

All of our items are Guaranteed to be Genuine and of the Period Stated.

We unconditionally guarantee the item to be as described.

We have a policy of absolute honesty in all our dealings allowing our customers to buy with complete confidence. Unlike many internet dealers we never present fakes or replicas as authentic. We can also give you advice on how to recognise replicas from genuine items - you will be amazed to realise how many sellers currently sell fakes as genuine antiques. We believe an educated public will help to drive fraudulent online dealers – who threaten the reputation of online arts and antiques buying - out of business.

Please check our about me page for information about our company, and to join our private club and forum where we will give you FREE EVALUATIONS and tips how to recognize authentic antiques from fake. 



All items listed by Dream Art Gallery are guaranteed to be authentic and of the period stated in the listing (areas of restoration excepted). In the unlikely event that we have made a mistake we will always refund the full purchase price. To qualify for a refund of the net sale price, you must provide us with written evidence from either:

(a) An Asian art specialist from Christie’s or Sotheby’s.
(b) A curator of Oriental arts from a major museum.
(c) A recognised testing laboratory using recognised scientific testing procedures (eg Thermoluminescence).

Please note that Thermoluminescence is suitable only for dating of excavated objects, as it can measure the earth's radiation absorbed by the crystals on the clay body. Ceramics which have not been buried in the earth, whatever their nature, contrary to what is commonly believed cannot be dated by thermoluminescence.



Unfortunately the ancient art market is plagued with a high proportion of fakes. To the inexperienced eye fakes often look better than real antiquities: they are frequently intact, invariably unrestored and their colours are more vivid - but it’s not always as easy as this! In recent years a new generation of highly skilled forgers have used sophisticated technologies to create a large number of extremely convincing antique looking replicas, replicating details that usually suggest authenticity such as fake patina, corrosion and even mineral deposits. These expertly executed fake antiques are currently creating much confusion among new and inexperienced collectors, who in many cases end paying huge amounts of money for worthless pieces of junk. That's why Dream Art Gallery will not only sell you 100% authentic artefacts, but will also help you to recognise for yourself these perfectly executed fakes. It is one of our aims to transform the new inexperienced collector into a trained knowledgeable and sophisticated buyer.
