Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Inextricably linked with Chinese civilization, jade played an essential, constituent role as a founding element in Chinese culture. Techniques of carving, the functions of the objects, and even the values related to jade were established during China’s period of formation, which spans the late Neolithic period to the age of the early empires. This is exactly the period to which the jades presented in RADIANT STONES belong: from the fourth millennium b.c.e. to the fourth century c.e., from the Neolithic period to the Han and Western Jin dynasties. In hundreds of color images, RADIANT STONES presents the ancient jades from the world-esteemed collection of Myrna and Samuel Myers.

From the Publisher

* A catalog of ancient jades from the collection of Myrna and Samuel Myers.

* Includes full-page color plates of all the jades

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a fantastic book on Neolithic jades. A perfect study companion for collectors., May 22, 2008

By	T. J. McCullough "MesoArt" (San Francisco Bay Area) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book provides excellent photographs and information about the individual items in the author's collection. As a collector myself, the variety of Neolithic pieces, the information presented and the detailed photography make this a great study aid to help anyone learn about the patination and stylistic traits of ancient Chinese jades. A very informative book, well worth the price.
