Fine Large Late 19thc Japanese Imari Planter & Stand 35cm

19th century
Description

Large Japanese Imari Planter & Stand – Late 19th / Early 20th Century, 35 cm

Description:

A striking large Japanese Imari planter, dating to the late 19th to early 20th century, richly decorated in the traditional Imari palette of vibrant iron red, deep cobalt blue, and gilded accents. This impressive piece features intricate hand-painted motifs, showcasing the craftsmanship and decorative flair synonymous with Japanese export ceramics of the period.

The planter is paired with a later stand (not original), which complements the piece well and provides a balanced, attractive display. Its generous scale and bold decoration make it an eye-catching statement piece, ideal for both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Condition:

Good antique condition overall. There is a visible hairline to the body and base area, as shown in photos. This is stable and does not detract from the overall visual impact or decorative appeal of the piece.

Dimensions:

Height: 35 cm

Why This Piece Stands Out:

Large and highly decorative Imari example

Rich hand-painted detail with classic colours

Includes display stand (later addition, well matched)

Strong statement piece for interiors or collections

Attractive despite minor age-related imperfections

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.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
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.

Imari porcelain originates from the Arita region in Japan and is characterised by its distinctive underglaze cobalt blue combined with overglaze iron-red and gilt hand-painted decoration, often featuring floral patterns and decorative panels.

Antique Imari planters are constructed from high-fired porcelain clay, painted with underglaze cobalt blue and enamelled with overglaze polychrome pigments before receiving delicate gilded accents.

Authentic 19th-century Meiji period Imari features dense decorative panels, floral reserves, rich iron-red and deep cobalt blue hues, and minor glaze imperfections or unglazed rims on the underside base.

A large Imari planter serves as a focal accent on a sideboard top, console table, or deep window sill, complementing modern spaces by introducing historical depth and vibrant polychrome patterns.

Dust the porcelain with a soft dry microfibre cloth and clean gently using tepid water and mild detergent when necessary, avoiding abrasive chemicals that could damage overglaze enamels and gilding.
