Beskrivning

Thai silver and Nielloware display exquisite craftmanship and design that rivals better-known genres of silver from Asia. However, there has to date been little written about this fascinating subject. Examining the history and scope of specified Thai silver and Nielloware production dating from the early 19th century to the present, as well as the various forms and designs utilised, long-term collector Paul Bromberg provides a single reference source for both newcomers and seasoned collectors alike.

[the reader will enjoy]...this attractively produced landmark publication. With its sharply focused detailed photography, concise readable text, inclusion of Thai terms and translations of Chinese marks, this book, in short order, will become the "bible" for collectors of Thai silverware.... This tour de force publication, that follows fast on the heels of the also very successful Bencharong: Chinese Porcelain for Siam by Dawn F. Rooney, augurs well for the future of River Boks' recently launched Discover Asian Art series, which aims to publish readable reference books devoted to collectable Asian art and crafts. - Sylvia Fraser-Ly, Arts of Asia, May/June 2019
