FAQs

Imari porcelain refers to Japanese export chinaware produced in the Arita area of Saga Prefecture, historically shipped from the port of Imari. Characterised by rich polychrome enamel palettes, underglaze blue, iron red, and gilt highlights, this style gained widespread prominence during the 17th century and continued into the Showa era.

Imari porcelain is crafted from kaolin clay fired at high temperatures to achieve a vitrified white body. The process involves applying underglaze cobalt blue, firing, and subsequently painting detailed enamel colours and gold leaf accents over the glaze before a second low-temperature firing.

Authentic Imari pieces typically exhibit dense hand-painted ornamentation including asymmetric cartouches, floral motifs such as chrysanthemums, and traditional figural scenes. Inspection of the foot rim often reveals unglazed kaolin clay, subtle brush stroke variations, and characteristic firing marks or maker marks.

An Imari porcelain bowl functions effectively as a focal centrepiece on a dining table, sideboard, or coffee table. Its vibrant colour scheme contrasts well with natural timber, dark lacquered surfaces, or modern neutral backdrops.

Clean porcelain using lukewarm water and a mild non-abrasive detergent applied with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive sponges, automatic dishwashers, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can strip overglaze enamel pigments and delicate gold leaf embellishments.
