FAQs

Chinese Imari porcelain refers to wares produced in China during the Qing dynasty, specifically imitating the Japanese Imari style which combined underglaze blue with overglaze iron-red and gilt.

These pieces are crafted from high-fired hard-paste porcelain, decorated using cobalt blue for underglaze elements and iron-red enamels, often accented with gold leaf, fired multiple times in traditional kilns.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit characteristic potting traits such as footring imperfections, hand-ground rims, characteristic iron-red and cobalt hues, and age-related wear to the glaze and enamels.

Antique ceramics can be displayed prominently on open shelving, within glass-front cabinets, or on sideboards to introduce rich colour, historical depth, and texture to contemporary or traditional spaces.

Antique porcelain should be hand-washed gently in lukewarm water using mild detergent when necessary, avoiding dishwashers, harsh chemicals, and abrasive materials to protect the delicate overglaze enamels.
