The Oriental Ceramic Society regularly holds
meetings at which
its members bring along items which they have collected for
discussion. Each of these meetings is devoted to a particular topic.
Giuseppe Eskenazi, one of London’s leading Oriental art dealers,
has very generously agreed to sponsor two joint meetings with Asia
House to enable a wider audience to participate in these informal
but lively discussions. The two meetings will be held at Asia House
on 14 November and 12 December.
The first of the Eskenazi sponsored meetings will be devoted to
celadon ceramics. Members of Asia House and the Oriental Ceramic
Society have the option to bring along any celadon ceramics that
they
might like to talk or learn about. Celadons have been produced
throughout Asia and although true celadons were made in the Far
East, imitations were also made in the Middle East. If you have
an example, bring it along and enjoy an afternoon with other enthusiasts
FREE to Asia House Members (booking required). Places are limited,
so early booking is recommended. Tickets available from Asia House,
63 New Cavendish Street, London Tel: 020 7307 5454
