Searles IIIf you love Japanese antiques. you cannot live without this survey. with superb photography. spectacular taste. ecclectic choice. and scholarly background by the editor of Daruma magazine. All of the major collectible fields are covered with practical. informative text. and beautifully photographed select finds. The photographic choices are representative. varied and exquisite. Not merely an introduction. the work serves as a springboard to understanding and appreciating many of the accessible antiques from the Edo and Meiji periods in particular. If the book had an index of marks for each type of collectible. it would be perfection. As-is. I like the book so much that I have bought extra copies for my friends. and a new copy when mine started to get worn.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Love this BookBy M. C.
