Capodimonte porcelain is porcelain created by the Capodimonte porcelain manufactory, which was established in Naples, Italy, in 1743. Capodimonte porcelain was made in direct emulation of Meissen porcelain. Capodimonte is famous for its moulded figurines and its decorative modelled flowers applied to cups and vases.

The Capodimonte porcelain tradition endured thanks to the creativity of the Neapolitan artists. During the second half of the 19th century, the first handicraft factories were created. They were all family-managed. In 1867, Alfonso Majello, knighted "Cavaliere del Lavoro", founded the Majellofactory, which continues to produce Capodimonte porcelain.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

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

Capodimonte porcelain originated in Naples, Italy, in 1743 under King Charles VII and Queen Maria Amalia. Famous for its detailed mouldings, high-relief classical figures, and rich polychrome enamelling, production continued through various Neapolitan workshops into the 19th and 20th centuries.

Traditional pieces are crafted from fine porcelain clay, decorated with hand-applied overglaze vitreous enamels, and highlighted with burnished gold leaf gilding on pediments, handles, and borders.

Authentic pieces typically feature the signature crowned N mark stamped or painted on the base. Look for crisp high-relief moulding, hand-painted enamel details, and precise gilding consistent with 19th-century Neapolitan manufacturing standards.

Display the vessel as a standalone focal piece on a mahogany sideboard, mantelpiece, or entryway console table. Pairing with symmetrical wall sconces or classical artwork enhances its architectural proportions.

Dust regularly using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or horsehair brush. Avoid water exposure on unglazed areas, keep away from abrasive chemical cleaners, and handle strictly by the primary base rather than the handles or rims.
