    Japanese pottery is called tojiki or yakimono. Various types have names of their own. For example, porcelain made during the Edo period is arita-yaki, while blue and white porcelain is seto-mono. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of Japanese pottery on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024
    To tell if your Japanese pottery is antique, look for markings, which usually appear on the bottoms of pieces. If you see the word "Nippon," your piece was likely produced between 1891 and 1921, making it an antique. Pieces marked with the words "made in occupied Japan" originated between 1945 and 1952 and are vintage, based on their age. A "made in Japan" marking may indicate a vintage or contemporary piece. If you don't see any of these markings, consult trusted online resources to get a rough idea of when your pottery was produced. Any piece that dates back 100 years or more is antique. Should you encounter difficulty with the dating process, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can assist you. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Japanese pottery.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024
    Japanese blue pottery is called sometsuke. When translated literally from Japanese, the word means "with dye." It refers to the fact that sometsuke pottery gets its beautiful color from applying a cobalt dye underglaze on white bisque ceramic. Find a wide variety of Japanese pottery from some of the world's top sellers on 1stDibs.
