What to Look For

Check dimensions carefully, especially with pairs of vases or plates, as listings may show one item’s measurements or use approximate figures. Examine photographs for rim chips, hairline cracks, glaze wear, rubbing to gilt, paint loss and repairs around handles, rims and bases. On painted peony designs, look for uneven detail or areas that may be obscured by glare. If a signature or mark is present, ask for a clear close-up and compare it with the seller’s description rather than assuming it confirms a particular maker or date. Confirm whether stands, lids or matching pieces are included. For US delivery, review packing methods, insurance, returns and any restrictions on shipping fragile porcelain.

Buying Tips

When comparing Meiji peony porcelain in the USA, check dimensions carefully, since small Kutani vases and plates can look larger in photographs. Read descriptions for chips, hairlines, enamel loss, gilt wear, staining, repairs, and replaced parts. Examine signatures and painted decoration in close-up images, but do not treat a mark alone as proof of attribution. Confirm whether prices apply to a pair or a single piece, and review packing, shipping insurance, and return terms before buying.
