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 refers to Japanese ceramics produced in the Arita area of Hizen province and exported via the port of Imari. During the Meiji period (18681912), production expanded to cater to Western demand, featuring underglaze blue brushwork combined with overglaze iron-red, green enamels, and gilded detailing.

Imari wares are crafted from kaolin-rich porcelain clay, fired at high temperatures. The design process involves applying an underglaze cobalt blue pigment, firing the piece, and subsequently adding polychrome overglaze enamels and gold leaf highlights before a secondary lower-temperature firing.

Authentic Meiji pieces display distinctive hand-painted underglaze blue patterns beneath thick enamel overlays. Marks on the base, irregularities in hand-applied gilding, firing spur marks, and natural age wear on unglazed foot rims indicate genuine period manufacture.

These decorative dishes can be displayed on plate stands atop a sideboard, framed within a shadow box, or arranged in a wall gallery. Their rich palette of blue, red, and gold complements dark timber furniture, neutral backdrops, and modern brass accents.

Wash porcelain gently by hand using lukewarm water and mild detergent, avoiding abrasive pads that could wear down overglaze enamels or gilding. Never place antique ceramics in a dishwasher, and dry thoroughly with a soft microfibre cloth.
