The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Imari porcelain from the Meiji period (18681912) is recognised by its intricate decoration featuring underglaze cobalt blue paired with overglaze iron-red enamels. Pieces often exhibit geometric framing, floral reserves, foliage motifs, and complex panelled arrangements created for both domestic display and export.

Imari ware is crafted from fine kaolin clay fired at high temperatures to create dense porcelain. The decoration involves a two-stage firing process: initial underglaze blue decoration followed by additional enamel colors applied over the glaze and re-fired at lower temperatures.

Authentic pieces generally display signs of hand-painted decoration, such as subtle variations in brushwork and enamel thickness. Look for characteristic color palettes including iron-red, cobalt blue, and occasionally gold leaf, along with appropriate wear on the foot rim.

A large Imari vase works as a focal point on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or console table. Its bold colour palette contrasts effectively against neutral backdrops or complements dark wood furniture in traditional and eclectic settings.

Clean gently using a soft cloth and lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive sponges, harsh chemicals, or soaking, as these can wear or lift overglaze enamels and gilding over time.
