History of Imari Porcelains

In the late 17th century, Japanese potters in Arita made export porcelains with iron-red, cobalt blue, and elaborate gilt designs to cater to European consumers. As the wares were shipped abroad from the Imari port, this brilliantly enameled porcelain category was known as “Imari ware.” From the 18th century, English artisans followed the Japanese example and manufactured similar Imari-inspired porcelain products called “Japan” patterns.

Background of Early Coalport Porcelain

In Shropshire, England, Coalport was already a center of porcelain and pottery production in 1795 when John Rose founded the Coalport Porcelain factory. Opened in 1792, the Coalport Canal, which joins the River Severn at Coalport, had increased the site’s attractiveness. From 1800 until a merger in 1814, two Coalport factories were operating, one on each side of the canal. Both factories made mostly tablewares with elaborate hand-painted overglaze decoration.
