What reading level is Hard Paste Porcelain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A "peach bloom" vase, in the Bloomfield Moore collection, is of globular shape, with long, slender neck, standing 16 inches high. The color of the glaze is a dark, rich, peach- skin red, blending into ashes of roses, with delicate cloudings of apple green and mottlings of crushed strawberry (No. 10). While some connoisseurs who have examined it have hesitated to place it with the class of peach blooms, because of the difference of its tinting from the glazes which go by that name, it in reality... more nearly approaches the true peach skin color than the smaller vases which have brought such fabulous prices. It may be attributed to the early part of the K'ang-hsi period of the present dynasty, when the peach bloom glaze was first developed. So-called transmutation, or flambe, colors are due to the varied degrees of oxidation of copper. The surface of the ware is mot- tled, flecked, streaked and splotched with various colors, ranging from brilliant reds, through every intermediate shade of purple to pale blue.
