What reading level is Notes On Shippo: a Sequel to Japanese Enamels book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The other example is a shuro, or handwarmer, of iron.
N 88 NOTES ON SHIPPO.
It is a very interesting work, affording as it does an early illustration of the most characteristic work of the school, namely, the powdering of a surface with a number of small ornamental figures, outlined, upon metal bases, in gold ribbons or wire, filled in with white and coloured enamel pastes, and afterwards inserted in cavities.
We find upon this example many of the forms so gene- rally employed by the more recen...t members of the family, especially by Harunari and Narimasa, the eighth and ninth in descent, both of whom were particularly skilful in their work. The devices, about twenty-five in number, none of them larger than a threepenny piece, include many of the Takara mono, butterflies, leaves, chrysanthemum blossoms floating in a stream, and other forms, all of which, outlined with gold cloisons and filled in with enamel pastes of various colours, serve to enrich the iron surface of the shuro; the enamels are opaque, with the exception of a few in trans- lucent red.
