This children's book captures children's imagination with lively characters taken from real pieces. It introduces children to the beauty of Chinese art and the symbolic meanings behind it, as well as bridging cultural divides with a charming and original story.
Normally I don't add books to my "Recent acquisitions" but for this children's book I just had to make an exception. Most of us struggle how to pass through our interest and admiration for Chinese Ceramics to our children or grandchildren. This children's book is an absolute "must" for everyone trying to pass though that interest to a generation soon to become the new caretakers for the pieces we all collected with so much passion and love during our lifetime.

Title: A Bowlful of Happiness
How can one find true happiness? The little Chinese boy Kang, imprisoned in sadness on a Chinese porcelain vase for more than 350 years by the slip of the painter's brush, is suddenly released by a magical wish. With his wise blue-and-white hobby horse as a guide, he sets out on an adventure through Chinese cultural history. He is joined along the way by auspicious animals: Dragon, Lion Dog, Elephant, the Mandarin Ducks and Feng Huang. The characters he meets, and what he learns during his travels, help him to realize eventually that sometimes happiness is to be found where you least expect it...
Using the rich and colourful decoration of Chinese porcelain, this book captures children's imagination with lively characters taken from real pieces. It introduces children to the beauty of Chinese art and the symbolic meanings behind it, as well as bridging cultural divides with a charming and original story.

Title: Chinese Porcelain Decoration in the 17th and 18th Centuries
The rich tradition of porcelain manufacture gave rise in 17th and 18th century China to many new forms of porcelain ware, all decorated using a wide range of techniques. Motifs ranged from flowers, leaves and entire landscapes through birds, fish and dragons to figures and groups. This book is the first to look not only at the pictorial element in decoration but also at the use of calligraphy, an area largely neglected until now in European specialist literature.

Auction catalogue, Auction held on 29, 30 & 31 January 2007
The wreck was discovered by fisherman working off the Ca Mau peninsular when their nets snagged on it. When they realised the porcelain was saleable they began dredging up as much as possible. Once the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture and Information realised what was happening they moved in quickly to secure the wreck site.
The excavation was lead by the Curator of The National Museum of Vietnamese culture. As you can see by the underside of the piece, not only does it have the Sotheby’s auction sticker but the reference numbers of the Vietnamese conservators. In all, 130,000 pieces were recovered and 76,000 of the finer condition pieces were selected to be sold by Sotheby’s
The ship was a Chinese ocean going junk, almost certainly en route from Canton (now Kuangzhou) to the Dutch trading port of Batavia (now Jakarta). Disaster struck off the Ca Mau peninsular, there was a fire on board so severe that some of the porcelain was fused together. There were a few wine cups recovered bearing the mark of the Emperor Yangzheng who reigned from 1723 to 1735. By this time tea and coffee was the rage throughout Europe and the principal traders were the Dutch East India Company, (Verenigde Oost-Indische Compagnie, VOC) of Amsterdam. With the demand for tea came demand for porcelain by which to drink it and so most of what they imported in these year was tea wares.
