Chinese art has always been well-represented within SOAS Library.

An explanation for the organization of the catalogue is provided on the last page of this volume’s text prior to the photographic catalogue. This is for reasons of flow. The first part of this catalogue provides context on why the collection came to the Museum and how the wares were used in an Internship as a training tool for a young researcher. The outcome of the training is then displayed in the second half of this catalogue with the photography and information gathered for/from the Department’s database.
