FAQs

Imari porcelain originates from the town of Arita in the Hizen province of Japan and was extensively exported to Europe from the port of Imari during the Edo and Meiji periods, known for its distinctive palette.

Imari pieces are crafted from high-fired hard-paste porcelain, traditionally decorated underglaze in cobalt blue and overglaze in iron red, accented with gilt details.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit hand-painted brushwork, iron-foot rims with potting flaws or kiln grit, and a dense, weighty feel characteristic of nineteenth-century ceramic production.

Pair these pieces with neutral backgrounds and minimalist furniture to highlight their intricate patterns, or place them on dark wood surfaces to create a traditional focal point.

Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or submersion in water, particularly on pieces with delicate overglaze enamel and gilt highlights.
