Chinas art objects and traditionally manufactured products have long been sought by collectorsfrom porcelains and silk fabrics to furniture and even the lacquered chopsticks that are a distant relation to ones found in most Chinese restaurants. Things Chinese presents sixty distinctive items that are typical of Chinese culture and together open a special window onto the people, history, and society of the worlds largest nation. Many of the objects are collectibles, and each has a story to tell.The objects relate to six major areas of cultural life: the home, the personal, arts & crafts, eating & drinking, entertainment, and religious practice. They include items both familiar and unfamiliarfrom snuff bottles and calligraphy scrolls to moon cake molds and Mao memorabilia. Ronald Knapps evocative text describes the history, cultural significance, and customs relating to each object, while Michael Freemans superb photographs illustrate them. Together, text and photographs offer a unique look at the material culture of China and the aesthetics that inform it.

The selection of collectibles is impressive, but I found a couple of items that weren't as well-made as I expected. One vase had a small chip. But the rest are gorgeous and really vibrant in color!

Disappointed with Damage
I had high hopes for these collectibles, but unfortunately, one of the items arrived damaged. The packaging could have been better to protect them. I still love the concept, but quality control could be improved.
