English text; Paperback; 19 x 13 cm; 0.230 kg; 155 pages with colour illustrations.; Used book with minor signs of wear.The interior is in good condition, except for minor yellowing on the front and free endpaper.; The word 'jade' conjures up an image of strange carvings in a smooth green stone. In fact jade comes in many different colours, but all the various types have a delicate beauty which has always appealed to connoisseur and craftsman alike. In China jade was being carved as far back as Neolithic times, even before the discoveries of metal. To cut and shape such a hard material using only bone or bamboo with an abrasive must have demanded extraordinary patience. No wonder the Chinese regarded it as more precious than gold. The objects made were often symbolic, since jade was thought to have magical properties, and shapes represent deities such as the Earth or the Sun. Owing to the hardness of jade it was frequently used to make knives, daggers and small axes, generally with carved decoration. Later, cups and vases, sometimes of immense size, were laboriously hollowed out, and in contrast, in the 17th century when snuff became fashionable, tiny snuff bottles appeared. Figures of animals and mythical beasts were popular, and there are many finely observed tortoises, horses and birds. The illustrations include examples from all these periods and the expert text, by Oscar Luzzatto-Blitz, gives a fascinating account of the background of jade carving, not only in China but also in Pre-Columbian America and New Zealand.., Casell Publishers, London, 1987, 2.5, Book.

Jeff Camardas THE SENSIBLE CIGAR CONNOISSEUR is an uproariously funny guidebook to every important aspect of the hobby, from knowing what makes for a good cigar, to how to find and buy them at wholesale prices. Unlike any other author in the genre, Camarda covers every important aspect, from secrets of storage, countries and colors, counterfeits, cigar toys, and all resources, from other books, to the internet and cigar radio! There's even a chapter written specifically for woman so don't peek! Perhaps as important as the quality of the information, the book is extremely funny and entertaining. He even includes a hilarious quiz at the end, which both fixes the knowledge and make the reader laugh uncontrollably. In fact, nearly every page makes you laugh out loud. If you have any interest in cigars, this book is for you. New smokers will find it an invaluable guide through the smoky territory of handmade, imported cigars. Veterans will find much useful here, and even more to laugh about. And all will learn from Lew Rothman's foreword on the future of the cigar industry. Mr. Rothman is president of J.R. Cigar, the worlds largest seller of premium cigars." . First Printing of the First Edition. Hardcover. Original pictorial wraps. 226pp.., Franklin Multimedia, 1998, 0, Among the ancients, instruction in drama and letters - poetics - mixed craft, precept and criticism quite freely; in our time, pedagogy, aesthetics and critical theory are usually kept firmly apart. This collection of 'aphorisms, thoughts and maxims' repairs something of the split by organizing the precepts that stand behind the making and reception of the arts into a unified 'metapoetics'. The book reflects on its own lapidary manner, investigates three representative theatres of life (power, love and death), and asserts our continuing need for the Gods and magic. It then moves from life into art, explores art, artists and the ethics of art, argues for the continuing relevance of notions of beauty, truth and genius, ponders style, and probes music, song and opera. Finally it returns to 'life' with thoughts on criticism and its practice. An appendix addresses other arts, notably film. The main text, which is both serious and witty, is illuminated throughout with examples from writings and culture of all periods. The book is richly illustrated with a set of mythic Beasts by the celebrated Anglo-Brazilian artist, Ana Maria Pacheco., Plumbago Books & Arts, 2011, 6<
