Bamboo
by Trea Wiltshire
$12.95 plus $1 shipping
to order, please call
(703) 875-8711
|
Ever the poet's brush, musician's
flute, bamboo
has sounded its quiet sonatas through the lives
of Asians over countless millenia. From
chopsticks to tools of trade, it has fed, housed
and furnished their existence, stimulated their
intellect and expressed their emotions from the
cradle to the grave. Little wonder that many still
revere this versatile and tenaciously enduring
plant. Offered in conjunction with Formasia.

Feng Shui
The Chinese System of Elements
by Harry Rolnick
$12.95 plus $1 shipping
to order, please call
(703) 875-8711
|
As elusive in its explanation as the
power of
prophecy, feng shui is the spiritual magnetic
field that binds our universe, distinguishing good
from ill, peace from turmoil, governing the
balance in the very elements of harmony itself.
Not crediting it is like not believing in the
inevitability of spring replacing winter.

The Chinese Scholar’s Desk
by Nigel Cameron
$12.95 plus $1 shipping
to order, please call
(703) 875-8711
|
To the Chinese scholar, the
preparation for
recording thought was as important as the
execution. On his desk lay the Four Treasures,
the symbols of his
calling: paper, brushes,
ink slab and ink, so arranged as to
inspire the
best of his talent. His finely ground and watered
ink
was the medium for transmitting his
message, his brush the conduit
through which
his spirit flowed on to carefully chosen paper.
Calligraphy in China ranked on a par with
painting and poetry, as
hallmarks of a man of
accomplishment and discriminating taste.
This
book, prepared by Formasia, takes you into the
scholar’s study and seats you
at that desk.
