FAQs

Imari porcelain originates from the Arita region of Japan and takes its name from the port of Imari, from where it was exported to Europe starting in the seventeenth century. The style gained immense popularity across Western aristocracies for its distinctive palette and detailed decoration.

Traditional Imari wares were hand-thrown from kaolin clay and fired at high temperatures. The production process involved applying an underglaze cobalt blue before the initial firing, followed by overglaze enamels in iron red and detailed gilding in subsequent lower-temperature firings.

Authentic antique Imari pieces typically feature subtle asymmetry in hand-painted motifs, evidence of potting irregularities, unglazed foot rims showing smooth kaolin clay, and characteristic wear to the gilded highlights rather than perfectly uniform modern foil application.

Imari jars serve as high-contrast accent pieces on timber sideboards, inside lit display cabinets, or flanking a central mirror on a mantelpiece. Their bold combination of deep cobalt and iron red introduces rich colour texture to both traditional and minimalist modern rooms.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or feather duster. Avoid abrasive cleaners, chemical solvents, or immersing the pieces in water, as moisture can compromise delicate overglaze enamel paint and soft gilding.
