FAQs

Satsuma ware is a type of Japanese pottery originating from Satsuma Province in Kagoshima Prefecture, traditionally characterised by an ivory-coloured, crackled glaze and elaborate enamel and gilt decoration. While its roots date back to the late 16th century, the pieces most commonly collected today were produced during the Meiji period for Western export.

Satsuma pottery is crafted from earthenware covered with a transparent glaze that develops a fine network of crackles, known as craquelure. Artisans then apply detailed polychrome mineral enamels and raised gold gilding to create intricate pictorial scenes, geometric borders, and floral motifs.

Authentic pieces typically feature the characteristic micro-crackled glaze beneath hand-painted enamel designs with gilding. Many pieces bear maker marks or studio signatures on the base, often written in Japanese kanji, corresponding to specific artists, workshops, or kiln houses from the period.

An antique decorative plate can be displayed on a wall using a specialised plate hanger, mounted within a shadow box frame, or stood upright on a sturdy brass easel on a mantelpiece or console table to showcase its intricate detailing alongside modern furnishings.

Antique pottery should be kept out of direct sunlight to prevent enamel fading and stored in a stable environment away from extreme humidity and temperature fluctuations. Cleaning should be restricted to gentle dusting with a dry, soft brush; water and chemical cleaners must be avoided to protect the delicate glaze and gilding.
