0N5: thing at least the present
revival of Chinese things has
done—it has taught us to
throw into the scrap heap most of
our notions of Chinese things. We
were wont to judge the whole artis-
tic output pf China by those foolish
little kickshawe that were brought
back by our acquaintances after I
visit to Chinatown. There were ten
sets of cheap chine that would never
have been given shelf room in any
house in China—because no China-
man would have had any use for
the sugar bowls and cream Jugs.
They were made only for the export
trade. An American resident in
China a. few years ago scoured the
shops in vain for one of those little
flimsy paper parssols that used to
be the inevitable ssory of the
American amateau actor’s make-up
when she wished to depict a. '
Chinese or Japanese woman. They
were not to be had. and the
reason was because parasols of that
sort were made entirely for Occi-
dental export. There were instead
heavily. glazed paper parade of a
far better quality. It is these glazed
crawls—really Chinese—that have
now become well knowu to Occi-
dental women who follow the fashion
for several seasons.
We have hid our eyes opened to
the treasure house of Chinese dress
and decoration, and there :13 very
little chance now for the smiling.
slant-eyed exporter with his flimsy
paper ornaments, his garish tea. sets
and impossible Jewelry. It has per-
haps surprised him that we possess
a little artistic appreciation our-
selves.
Seed pearls. beloved by Chinese
ladies of the Manchu set. are looked
upon here with delight. They are
turned into headdresses. into pen—
dant earrings. into necklaces that
also carry carnelians. bits of Jade.
and balls of amber. The seed pearl
headdresses of the Chinese ladies have
been brought home by many tourists
to China. They are bendeaux that
go around part of the head, dripping
a long string of pearls. Some have
ornaments over the ears from which
hang tassels of pearls.
