The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Vienna style porcelain chargers are large decorative display plates characterised by central hand-painted reserves depicting historical, mythological, or literary scenes framed by dark cobalt blue borders and ornate raised gilding.

These pieces are crafted using fine white porcelain ground, hand-applied enamel pigments for narrative scenes, and multi-layered gold leaf or gilt paint for intricate filigree borders.

Authentic pieces usually exhibit fine hand-painted brushwork rather than printed transfers, an underglaze shield or beehive mark on the reverse, and heavy raised gold gilding applied over dark enamel ground.

A large charger can be mounted on a dark accent wall using a plate wire hanger or displayed upright on an acrylic or wooden stand situated on a sideboard or mantelpiece.

Clean gilded porcelain by dusting gently with a soft microfibre cloth or dry horsehair brush, avoiding water immersion and chemical cleaners that could rub off raised gold leaf and enamel details.
