How do I hang a heavy charger safely?

Heavy chargers and platters require specialised wall hangers featuring spring-loaded brass clips that distribute the weight evenly across the rim. Ensure the fixing is secured directly into wall studs or masonry rather than plaster alone. Avoid wire attachments that rely on adhesives or friction pads, as ceramic items can slip over time. Check the stability of the mounting periodically to protect the piece from accidental knocks.

Were these dishes meant for food?

Many historical dishes, particularly 18th-century delft chargers and large platters, served functional roles at the dining table before transitioning to purely decorative items. Others, such as Satsuma bowls or commemorative plaques, were created specifically for visual display. Using older ceramics for dining requires caution, as historic glazes may contain lead and fragile overglazes can be damaged by cutlery. Modern display stands or wall mounts preserve the integrity of antique surfaces.

How can I tell Japanese Satsuma from European wares?

Japanese Satsuma is characterised by a distinctive cream-coloured or ivory earthenware body covered in a fine, microscopic network of craze lines in the glaze. The decoration typically combines dense, intricate enamel work with extensive raised gilding. European imitations or contemporaneous majolica pieces use different clay bodies and glazing techniques without the signature crackle-finish typical of traditional Satsuma production. Artist signatures and factory stamps on the base often confirm the exact origin.
