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.

A Satsuma koro is a traditional Japanese vessel designed for burning incense, originating from Kagoshima prefecture during the late sixteenth century and further developed into ornate exported ceramics during the Meiji period.

Satsuma ceramics are constructed from a cream-coloured earthenware body featuring a characteristic crackle glaze, adorned with hand-painted polychrome enamels and detailed gilt embellishments.

Authentic Satsuma ware features a finely crackled cream glaze over a light earthenware body rather than true porcelain, intricate hand-painted decoration, and frequently carries an artist or workshop mark on the underside.

Position the vessel on a dark wood console table, mantelpiece, or dedicated display shelf to allow the gold detailing and enamels to contrast against neutral surfaces.

Dust carefully using a dry, soft-bristled brush or clean microfibre cloth, avoiding water immersion or chemical cleansers that could damage the surface gilding and enamel work.
