Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer.

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Imari porcelain originated in the Arita region of Japan during the seventeenth century and was exported to Europe via the port of Imari. These wares became highly sought after by European nobility for their vibrant enamels and intricate decorative panels.

Imari wares are crafted from fine kaolin porcelain clay, fired at high temperatures. Decoration typically involves an underglaze cobalt blue, followed by secondary kiln firings for overglaze iron-red enamel, multicoloured pigments, and liquid gold gilding.

Authentic nineteenth-century pieces exhibit hand-painted variations in brushwork, subtle asymmetry, and minor glaze firing imperfections. Look for slight wear on the unglazed foot rim and natural rubs to the gilt highlights consistent with age.

Place a large Imari vase as a central focal point on a credenza, sideboard, or within a hallway alcove. The strong cobalt blue and terracotta red hues contrast effectively against neutral walls and polished wood surfaces.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth. For deeper cleaning, use lukewarm water with a mild pH-neutral detergent, avoiding chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges that could erode overglaze gilding and enamels.
