Asian Ceramics & Porcelain

Category Description — Asian Ceramics & Porcelain

Explore the Asian Ceramics & Porcelain collection at TMC Emporium, featuring a growing selection of antique and vintage ceramics from Japan, China and other important Asian ceramic traditions.

Our collection includes porcelain, stoneware and earthenware representing a wide range of decorative styles and techniques, from Japanese blue and white porcelain, Imari, Kutani and Satsuma to Chinese Famille Verte, Famille Rose, export porcelain and other enamelled and underglaze-decorated wares.

Each piece is individually researched with attention to its ceramic body, decoration, glaze, marks, construction, age and condition. The collection may include chargers, plates, bowls, vases, figurines and other decorative forms, ranging from finely painted porcelain to richly enamelled display pieces.

Whether collected for their history, craftsmanship, colour, symbolism or decorative presence, Asian ceramics offer an extraordinary variety of forms and traditions developed over centuries of production and cultural exchange.
