FAQs

Arita porcelain originates from the town of Arita in Hizen province, Japan, with production beginning in the early 17th century following the discovery of kaolin clay.

Arita pieces are crafted from refined local porcelain stone, shaped on a potters wheel, and traditionally decorated with cobalt blue underglaze before high-temperature firing.

Authentic pieces often feature hand-painted cobalt designs with subtle iron-spot impurities in the glaze, variations in weight, and historical base characteristics indicative of traditional kiln methods.

Antique ceramics add historic texture and colour contrast when displayed on open shelving, integrated into tablescapes, or used as functional decorative accents in contemporary spaces.

Antique ceramics should be hand washed gently using mild detergent and lukewarm water, avoiding abrasive sponges, harsh chemicals, and sudden temperature extremes.
