Cast Chinese Amulets by David Hartill, hardcover, 2020. A substantial and highly practical reference devoted to the long and fascinating tradition of Chinese cast amulets, covering pieces produced over more than two thousand years in bronze and brass, from cash-shaped charms to openwork, pictorial, zodiac and inscriptional types. Hartill arranges the material for ease of identification, with finding guides based on visible features and inscriptional characters, making the book especially useful for collectors, dealers and cataloguers working with material that can otherwise be difficult to classify. The catalogue includes more than 5,000 amulets, with descriptions, Chinese characters, Pinyin, translations, explanations and source notes, offering not only a detailed collecting guide but also a valuable window into traditional Chinese beliefs, symbolism and religious or auspicious themes. An important modern reference for Chinese numismatics and amuletic objects. About new. |
