FAQs

The Imari style originated in Japan and heavily influenced European potteries during the 19th century, resulting in distinctive export and domestic wares characterised by vibrant palettes.

These vessels were typically crafted from fine-paste porcelain or earthenware, hand-painted with underglaze cobalt blue, iron red, and enriched with overglaze gilding.

Authentic pieces often exhibit manufacturer marks, appropriate weight, crazing in the glaze consistent with age, and hand-applied gilding showing natural wear.

It can be displayed as a standalone focal point on a mantelpiece, console table, or within an enclosed glass cabinet to highlight its intricate patterns.

Keep items out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading, dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and avoid using liquid cleaners or immersing them in water.
