Suggest to take a good close-up photo of the blue colored Chinese character as well as photos of 1 or 2 pieces from the set and post them on an on-line photo sharing site & provide the link here. People can then help to translate or give advice if they’ve seen similar pieces before. You can also bring the photos to any Chinese antique shop in Chinatowns near your area to see if they can help or see whether YA has a section on antiques or porcelain/china.

Chinese Box - $19.99 Hong Kong emigrant Wayne Wang directed and co-wrote (with Paul Theroux, Jean-Claude Carriere and Larry Gross) this story set in "the Pearl of the Orient" as the British government prepared to hand over the city to China in 1997. John (Jeremy Irons) is an English journalist who has lived in the city for some time; while in some ways he still feels like an outsider, he's come to think of Hong Kong as a home and has close friends there. John is also in love with Vivian (Gong Li), a one-time prostitute who now runs a bar owned by her fianc?, Chang (Michael Hui). John is struggling with the realization that he can never have Vivian as his own, when he learns that he has leukemia; the British are to give the reigns of power back to the Chinese in six months, but John's doctors tell him he isn't likely to live long enough to see it happen. He quits his job and begins wandering the streets, recording his observations of the city on videotape when he meets Jean (Maggie Cheung), a young woman who makes her way selling whatever she can scavenge, and who hides a secret behind the scarves that obscure her face. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

The Early Chinese Empires $20.54 In 221 bc the First Emperor of Qin unified the lands that would become the heart of a Chinese empire. Though forged by conquest, this vast domain depended for its political survival on a fundamental reshaping of Chinese culture. With this informative book, we are present at the creation of an ancient imperial order whose major features would endure for two millennia. The Qin and Han constitute the classical period of Chinese history--a role played by the Greeks and Romans in the West. Mark Edward Lewis highlights the key challenges faced by the court officials and scholars who set about governing an empire of such scale and diversity of peoples. He traces the drastic measures taken to transcend, without eliminating, these regional differences: the invention of the emperor as the divine embodiment of the state; the establishment of a common script for communication and a state-sponsored canon for the propagation of Confucian ideals; the flourishing of the great families, whose domination of local society rested on wealth, landholding, and elaborate kinship structures; the demilitarization of the interior; and the impact of non-Chinese warrior-nomads in setting the boundaries of an emerging Chinese identity. The first of a six-volume series on the history of imperial China, The Early Chinese Empires illuminates many formative events in China's long history of imperialism--events whose residual influence can still be discerned today.

Chinese Art in Detail $14.97 For many Westerners, the words Chinese art evoke visions of willow pattern landscapes on porcelain plates and teapots, Chinese wallpaper decorated with flowers, birds, and pagodas, and perhaps silk brocades. This beautiful book allows readers to see beyond such ornamental exports to the true nature of the art produced in China over millennia for a Chinese audience, whether the Emperor, the scholarly elite, the ordinary folk, or the furnishing of tombs and temples. Drawing on the British Museum's extensive collection, Chinese Art in Detail explores the traditional hierarchy of materials and techniques reaching back as far as the Han Dynasty in the third century b.c.--with calligraphy and painting most revered, followed by jades and bronzes, decorative arts such as lacquer, porcelain, and silk, and, finally, sculpture for religious and funerary use. Images of complete artifacts set against magnified details give readers the rare opportunity to appreciate the delicacies of technique and material that characterize much of Chinese art--and distinguish one form, as well as one period, from another. Illuminated throughout by two scholars thoroughly and deeply versed in the history and character of the works under scrutiny, this sumptuously illustrated book conveys an understanding of Chinese art in all its great variety, its simplicities, its complexities, its splendors, and its mysteries of craft and inspiration reaching back to Neolithic times.

Imaging the Chinese in Cuban Literature and Culture $28.68 More than 150 years ago, the first Chinese contract laborers ( coolies ) arrived in Cuba to work the colonial plantations. Eventually, over 150,000 Chinese immigrated to the island, and their presence has had a profound effect on all aspects of Cuban cultural production, from food to books to painting. Ignacio Lopez-Calvo''s interpretations often go against the grain of earlier research, refusing to conceive of Cuban identity either in terms of a bipolar black/white opposition or an idyllic and harmonious process of miscegenation. He also counters traditional representations of chinos mambises, Chinese immigrants who fought for Cuba in the Wars of Independence against Spain. Imaging the Chinese in Cuban Literature and Culture fills a void in literary criticism, breaking new ground within the small field of Sino-Cuban studies. It is destined to set the tone for years to come.

Chinese Box (DVD) $10.55 Hong Kong-born American director Wayne Wang returned to the city in 1990 to make the gritty street-level thriller LIFE IS CHEAP...BUT TOILET PAPER IS EXPENSIVE. In 1997, with the city on the verge of the British handing the colony back to the Chinese, he returned for a different look. In CHINESE BOX, Jeremy Irons plays John, an English journalist moving among the Chinese business elite and British officials at expensive nightclubs. However, the politics of transition are seen through the prism of his personal relationships. He is in love with Vivian (Gong Li), a woman he meets in Beijing who's now working at a club owned by Chang (Michael Hui), the man she wants to marry. But Chang wants to become respectable and won't marry her because of her checkered past. After a personal crisis, John goes out with a camcorder to capture images of the last days of British rule. He becomes fascinated by Jean, a mysterious woman who hides half her face behind a scarf as she darts through the streets aggressively selling strange items. Played with a manic verve by martial arts star Maggie Cheung, Jean comes to represent everything that is strange and enigmatic about Hong Kong. Taken from a story by Paul Theroux and written by Jean-Claude Carriere, a frequent collaborator with Luis Bunuel, CHINESE BOX is a thoughtful, realistic blend of individual lives set against a large historical backdrop.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.85Single Side - Single LayerAdditional Release Material: Trailers - 1.Original Theatrical TrailerInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene AccessText/Photo Galleries: Cast Information

BALZAC AND THE LITTLE CHINESE SEAMSTR $23.27 First love and growing intellectual awareness memorably intertwine in BALZAC AND THE LITTLE CHINESE SEAMSTRESS, a coming-of-age story set in a remote mountain village during China`s Cultural Revolution of the 1970s. Luo (Kun Chen) and Ma (Ye Liu), close friends and sons of well-off parents deemed "enemies of the people," are sent from their urban homes to be reeducated in a small village. Their tough new existence is enlivened only by Ma`s virtuoso violin playing and their burgeoning friendship with the beautiful daughter of the local tailor. She is known as the Little Chinese Seamstress (Xun Zhou), and as Luo sets his sight on romance, he declares he doesn`t want to know her real name. Luo embarks on a reeducation of the Little Seamstress, vowing to cure her of her provincial ways. Their "school" consists of a stolen suitcase full of banned Western novels, many by French writers, which opens their eyes and hearts to the wonders of the outside world.Writer/director Dai Sijie`s triumph with his work is in showing how the three teenagers create beauty and the beginnings of freedom through music and books, which transform into ideas. The tender beginnings of adulthood, both painful and exhilarating, are quietly observed. Sijie adapted his best-selling book of the same name, which was itself a largely autobiographical account of his own experience with reeducation. BALZAC AND THE LITTLE CHINESE SEAMSTRESS has been translated into 25 languages, but not Chinese. The film, while shot on location in the Sichuan area of China, still has not received permission to be shown in that country.

The Killing of a Chinese Bookie - $29.99 John Cassavetes takes a contemporary film noir turn (which he would return to in Gloria) after exploring domestic melodrama in A Woman Under the Influence with The Killing of a Chinese Bookie. Ben Gazzara plays Cosmo Vitelli, the owner of a sleazy Los Angeles strip joint, who loses $20,000 at a mob gambling club owned by a small time gangster (Seymour Cassel). Since Cosmo doesn't have the $20,000, he is forced to murder a Chinese bookie in order to clear his debt to the mob. What Cosmo doesn't know is he's part of a set-up. The bookie is actually a West Coast mob boss protected around the clock by bodyguards. The mobsters figure that Cosmo will be killed in an impossible hit and they can take over his nightclub. But Cosmo proves luckier than the mobsters think -- he manages to kill his target, and now the mobsters have to track down Cosmo and kill him. Initially, at 133 minutes, the movie was subsequently re-edited by Cassavetes to 109 minutes. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

Autobiography of a Chinese Girl: A Genuine Autobiography $116.09 The emergence of the New Chinese Woman and the New China were inextricably linked in history as they are in this autobiography set in the revolutionary 1920's. The author's life was one of struggle. She fought against the tyranny of her mother in the home and an arranged marriage, against the warlords in the fields, and against the Kuomintang when they split with the Communists. Above all she fought against the Chinese traditions of valuing boys far above girls, and of consigning unmarried women to limbo. The romantic idealism of the revolution in its early days, the iniquities of the old family system it overthrew, the passionate friendships of the young girl soldiers, and the personal sacrifices involved in creating the new order are brought vividly to life in this touching and thought-provoking book. Written in the 'new realism' style of the period, this is an important work of its time and place, and a significant contribution to women's writing and history generally. The volume begins with a detailed account of the development of early revolutionary Chinese politics and literature.

The Chinese $34.2 Chinese immigrants into the United States encountered persistent bigotry and racial prejudice. Despite their many contributions, the Chinese were thought incapable of assimilation. From 1882 to 1943, most Chinese were legally barred from immigrating, the only national group ever singled out for exclusion. Chinese immigrants persevered, put down roots, started families, built communities, and made inestimable contributions to American culture and life.

Chinese Popular Culture and Ming Chantefables $159.41 In 1967 a body of Chinese texts was discovered in a tomb outside Shanghai. It contained a set of unique examples of an oral genre favoured by unlearned classes in the late imperial period (15th century), best called 'chantefables', appearing at the beginning of a profound historical shift which resulted in a broadening of the uses of writing and printing in China. These texts are now generally seen to occupy an important place in the development of Chinese literature as a whole, and of Chinese vernacular literature in particular.In the first monographic treatment of all the chantefable corpus in English the author, by examination from a more anthropological view, points out that these 'oral traditional texts' can only be appreciated in the festival, ritual and performative context of their derivation and reception. Topics dealt with in this important work include the popular interpretation of Confucian orthodoxies, the literary recycling of the oral tradition, and the influence of chantefables on the development of Chinese vernacular fiction.The author offers interesting comparative perspective on the different social consequences of print technology in China and the West.Illustrations of ten chantefable woodblocks are included.
