This page is for David in Australia who I promised some pictures of my Oriental Ceramic collection and maybe they will be of interest to others.

They are quickly taken pictures and not the best in the world but I think they give some idea of what I have. I hope to be able to put a better set of pictures on this page in the future so watch this space.
Please feel free to email me if you have any comments to make.
