Royal porcelain from Siam

unpacking the Ring Collection

by , , , , and

The book provides a general presentation of Bencharong as well as new insight into its nature, history and use, written by some of the leading scholars in the field. Similarities and differences between chinaware exported to Thailand and to other countries in the region are among the topics that are discussed. From which sources has Bencharong derived its unique design? What is the status of this porcelain in Thailand today? The Ring collection of Bencharong receives special attention. In addition, other antiquities in this collection are examined. Some articles also focus on other Norwegian collectors of oriental arts and ceramics. What were the collectors' backgrounds and their motivations? Exhibition: Museum of Cultural History, Oslo, Norway (22.11.2013-31.8.2014).
