How do I hang these plates safely?

Displaying these decorative pieces on a wall requires properly fitted spring-loaded plate hangers that distribute weight evenly across the rim. Ensure the mounting hardware is secured directly into wall studs or appropriate wall anchors. Avoid hangers with bare metal wires that might abrade the porcelain glaze over time. Periodically check the tension of the hanger to maintain a secure hold on the scalloped or shaped edges.

Are these plates meant for dining?

These items serve primarily as decorative wall plates, chargers, and display dishes rather than functional tableware. Using them for food service risks damaging the overglaze enamels and delicate gold leaf details. Keep them mounted on walls or placed in display cabinets to preserve their painted surfaces. Hand washing with mild soap is recommended only if cleaning becomes strictly necessary.

How do I distinguish Edo from Meiji pieces?

Distinguishing between Edo and Meiji periods involves examining the body weight, glaze texture, and painting style. Earlier Edo pieces often display heavier porcelain bodies and slightly more rustic cobalt application. Meiji period items frequently exhibit finer brushwork precision and brighter enamel integration due to industrial advancements in kiln temperature control. Comparing the blue underglaze depth provides further clues to the date of manufacture.

Arita ware refers to Japanese porcelain produced in and around the town of Arita in Hizen province. This region served as the primary ceramic manufacturing centre for imari export pieces. Local clay composition and access to essential minerals allowed potters to produce fine white porcelain suited for intricate glazing. The term encompasses both blue and white designs and multi-coloured enamel decorated items.
