Questions About Japanese Porcelain Figurine
- What is Japanese porcelain?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The creation of Japanese porcelain began in the late 1500s. Although the styles and variations of Japanese porcelain range, many consider Kyushu to be the center of Japanese porcelain production. You’ll find a variety of antique and modern Japanese porcelain pieces on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 30, 2024To date Japanese porcelain, examine its markings. Generally, the name Nippon appeared on pieces produced between 1891 and 1921. From 1945 to 1952, makers placed a mark that read "Made in Occupied Japan." A piece that is marked simply "Japan" or "Made in Japan" may date from the period just before or during World War II or from after the end of occupation in 1952. When in doubt, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer for help with dating. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Japanese porcelain.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The term ceramic is a generic term that refers to something that is made of clay and solidified through heat. Porcelain falls under the ceramic umbrella, but it incorporates kaolin as an ingredient, creating a white clay. To determine if a figurine is porcelain or stoneware or earthenware, it’s best to examine it. Porcelain is somewhat translucent with a glasslike surface where there is no glaze. Shop a range of antique and vintage porcelain figurines on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 9, 2024To tell vintage porcelain figurines apart from other pieces, look on the bottom for a maker's mark. Then, consult trusted online resources to determine the approximate time when the manufacturer produced pieces similar to yours. It is vintage if your figurine was manufactured between 20 and 99 years ago. Older figurines are antique, while newer ones are contemporary. A certified appraiser or knowledgeable dealer can also assist with the dating and identification process. Shop a wide range of vintage figurines on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022One thing to look for in an antique porcelain figure is to look for the maker’s mark, usually found on the bottom of the piece. The porcelain figure will also have a delicate fragile quality to it. On 1stDibs, find a collection of antique porcelain figures from some of the world’s top sellers.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The difference between porcelain and ceramic figurines is the materials used to produce them. Porcelain is a delicate white material, while ceramic tends to be heavier and varies in color depending on the type of clay used to produce it. Shop a wide range of antique and vintage figurines on 1stDibs.
- Is Japanese porcelain valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 27, 2024Yes, some Japanese porcelain is valuable. Many collectors prize porcelain ware produced in Japan during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, and demand for pieces from this period can be high due to the demand. Some types that are particularly sought include Arita ware, Seto ware and Mino ware. The value of a particular piece depends on its age, maker, style and condition. A certified appraiser or expert dealer can help you determine how much your porcelain is worth. On 1stDibs, shop a large selection of Japanese porcelain.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022No, every Fornasetti porcelain figurine is handmade. In fact, the brand produces all of their home decorative items by hand at their workshop in Milan, Italy. If you see indications that a figurine came from a factory, it is likely not an authentic Fornasetti. Shop a collection of expertly vetted Fornasetti on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 28, 2021Japanese porcelain ranges from $1,500 to $3,000 but may be found at a lower price in auctions. It’s a valuable collectible from the latter half of the 19th century and early part of the 20th century. Find a variety of antique and vintage Japanese porcelain on 1stDibs.
