Hollow Line in Dating Chinese Porcelains. San Francisco, CA: Chinese Art Appraisers Association, 1978. First Edition. Limited Hardcover 212/850 Copies. ISBN 0-930940-03-2 Quarto (11.25 in. by 7.5 in.); 118pp.; signed by author to title page; on copyright page in same handwriting: Limited Hardcover 212/850; very good hardcover; very good dust jacket; dust jacket lightly torn, chipped at extremities; book opens freely at sections. THE HOLLOW LINE IN DATING CHINESE PORCELAINS is a study of late Ch'ing Dynasty porcelain. The hollow line is the author's discovery and terminology for an outstanding peculiarity of underglaze blue that is seen with increasing frequency during the late 19th and early 20th century. The question arises: If a good quality porcelain with a 17th-century reign mark has hollow lines, how should the piece be dated? --Quote from dust jacket |
