description: Catalog of an exhibition showcasing selections of Qing dynasty Chinese glass from the collection of Ina and Sandford Gadient. Amassed over 25 years and consisting more than 200 pieces, their collection represents one of varied and remarkable private collections of Chinese glass. This catalog fully illustrates and examines 62 pieces, more than half of which date to the 18th century or earlier in the Qing dynasty and twelve of which bear a mark attributable with certainty to the Yongzheng or the Qianlong period. The objects include many fine vases, dishes, bowls, jars and covered jars, and figures of Guanyin. Highlights are a pear-shaped vase in opaque white glass with carved overlay of opaque red, with Qinglong mark and period; a pair of 18th-century lotus leaf-shaped dishes in opaque yellow glass; and an 18th-19th century figure of Guanyin in transparent brown glass swirled with opaque yellow-brown imitating amber.
