"Shiwan art does not stand apart from the common people, as do many works from the better known kilns of Dehua and Jingdezhen, as perfected sytylized intellectual objects. Possibly that is one reason why the Shiwan products have rarely been appreciated by the scholars and intelligentsia. Perhaps this deficit can be rectified by accepting the work for what it is rather than be invidious comparisons against classical art. It speaks its own message and that is unique"

Would like to highly recommend this "Shiwan Wares Exhibition Catalogue"

Large book at 423 pages and it is loaded with Shiwan pieces and scholarly reference material.
