Catalogue of a collection of oriental porcelain and pottery: Lent for exhibition

Since the publication of the first edition of this catalogue, I have endeavoured to render the collection more complete ; especially in the Japanese sections, which were far from illustrating in a satisfactory manner that important branch of ceramic art. The result has been that a considerable number of additional examples have been acquired, which it has been thought desirable to add to the collection ex- hibited, forming in all a series of about 1,700 specimens. In order, however, not to disarrange the existing numbers, and to leave the first edition useful as far as it goes, the additional descriptions are printed as a supplement, under the classes previously adopted, and the plates have been numbered on at the end of the old series.
