Imari designs, named for the Japanese port from which they were shipped to the West in the 17th century, are instantly recognizable for their lavish use of cobalt blue, iron red, and gleaming gold. Originating in the kilns of Arita, these porcelain wares combined bold floral motifs, scrolling foliage, and sometimes mythical creatures in intricate, almost textile-like patterns. Their striking palettes and exuberant decoration captivated European collectors, influencing makers from Meissen to Worcester, who created their own interpretations.
This Imari inspired set promises to become a memorable, heirloom addition to your china collection.
