How do I identify porcelain marks?
1 Answer

There are a few ways to identify porcelain marks. The quickest method is photographing the marking and performing a reverse image search. Often, this approach will allow you to quickly identify the maker of your porcelain. Alternatively, you can type a short description of the mark into a search engine or review trusted reference websites that show images of popular makers’ markings. If these approaches don't provide you with enough information to make a confident identification, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can assist you. On 1stDibs, find a large selection of porcelain.
