A beautiful and lavishly illustrated (with over 150 pieces of lacquerware, some from private collections rarely seen), new study of lacquerware from Southeast Asia. Includes both utilitarian and sacred items. New essays by two of the world's preeminent authorities on lacquerware.
A must for collectors and museums, highlights of the finest lacquerware from Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia.
Although much has been written about Burmese Lacquerware, this book breaks new ground with essays by the art historians Sylvia Fraser-Lu and Linda McIntosh focusing on the locations and techniques of lacquer production in Burma (Myanmar), Thailand, Cambodia and Laos, as well as the form, function and use of these beautiful utilitarian and sacred objects. More than 150 exquisite and diverse objects are beautifully photographed with full descriptions.
