FAQs

Kraak porcelain is a style of Chinese blue-and-white export ceramic produced during the late Ming Dynasty, predominantly during the reign of Emperor Wanli. The term originates from the Dutch description of the Portuguese carracks (criques) that transported these goods to European trade markets.

Kraak wares were crafted from kaolin clay, formed in moulds, and painted with cobalt blue oxide decoration under a clear glaze before firing at high temperatures. The production process featured painted compartment panels along the rim enclosing stylized botanical and auspicious motifs.

Authentic pieces feature thin-potted porcelain, radial panel borders with flower sprays or auspicious symbols, and radiant cobalt blue underglaze tones. Additional physical markers include kiln sand adhesion on the foot rim, radial chatter marks on the underside, and a foliated rim edge.

Display the plate upright on a clear acrylic or wooden stand upon a sideboard, or secure it in a curated wall grouping alongside other traditional blue-and-white ceramics to contrast against warm timber or contemporary matte backgrounds.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and a mild dishwashing liquid applied with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive scrubbing pads, harsh chemical cleaners, or submersion in hot water to prevent damage to glaze surfaces and existing hairline stress fractures.
