Sorting the two out is very hard and requires a lot of knowledge and a detailed examination. The Chinese used to make vases for the Japanese market and vice versa for instance. It's basically impossible to make a proper determination from a video.
Watching someother antique show and heard the screens were for privacy when you needed to use the toilet but you needed to go during the middle of a meal. Who wants to hear that?
@@BillOweninOttawa nope. The bottom part is Japanese style but not Japanese crafted in Japan. Most of so called japanese antiquities in Europe is made for either export or counterfeit peace made by Chinese. Don't get mad, just saying the truth so readers can learn not to make mistakes when they see an piece elsewhere and assume it's japanese like Drew does everytime he sees one.
You need more and better metrics. What you have 'seen' is dispostive of nothing really. "There are basically five categories by which the look and qualities of historical or traditional ceramics/pottery from China and Japan are determined: Clay type and composition (also called clay body) Glaze type and composition Kiln type and firing heat and atmosphere Direction and steadiness of the throwing wheel Historical aesthetics TL;DR: China ware is generally thinner lighter and more geometrical precise with white or brighter colors. Japanese ware is thicker, more organic with a natural earth color palette. Japan did and does not have a lot of deposits of natural white clay high in Kaolin (a mineral rich in alumina) which was rather plentiful in China. White “porcelain” or china clay bodies can be formed to very thin and delicate shapes and vessels and still fired at above 1250 to 1300 degrees celsius without cracks or warpage. The Chinese developed this high fire kilns and corresponding firing techniques and glazes much earlier than the Japanese who had not much use for it with their rougher and softer clay bodies. In general Japanese ware is thicker, heavier with matte glazes in a natural palette ranging from black and earthen red to yellow and creme white, where China ware is more delicate with shiny glaze that is fully transparent (and shows the pure white china clay) or blue, green and intense red that can only be achieved at high temperatures and reducing (lack of oxygen) kiln atmosphere. Another factor is the direction the throwing wheel turns. In China a “kick wheel” became popular and was used much earlier. Kicking the disk at the base of the wheel makes it spin counter clockwise. Using the feet to drive the wheel results in a steadier motion, leaves both hands free for shaping and the right hand is working and shaping the outside of the vessel. In Japan a hand wheel was used which spins clock wise (the right hand is drawn towards your body as opposed to a foot kicking away from you) which revolves less steady and results in the right hand shaping the inside of the form. Even today with electric wheels the „reversed“ direction is very common among Japanese artists. Finished pots where cut from the still turning wheel with a straw cord that left distinctive marks on the base depending on he direction of the wheel. Because of the resulting pattern products could be classified into “kara-mono” (chinese ware) and “wa-mono” (japanese). China ware was almost always seen and priced as superior to Japanese products, not only for aesthetics, but most often cultural and political reasons. But there came a time in the 16th century in Japan where a tea ceremony which involved mixing powdered green tea to a froth with a bamboo whisk became very popular. One of the great artists (Sen no) Rikyu preferred the softer more natural shaped Japanese ware over china ware because of two qualities: 1. Japanese clay bodies are porous and isolate heat better so you are less likely to burn your hands on a hot cup of tea. 2. The whisk makes a softer sound on the matte Japanese glaze where as it creates an unnerving ding-ding-ding sound on the Chinese glaze. Political aspects and national pride might have also played not a small role for using Japanese ware over foreign products. The shapes and glazes like “Raku”, “Shino” or “Oribe” ware originating from this time referred to as “Momoyama period” determine Japanese pottery aesthetics until today." www.quora.com/What-are-the-differences-between-Japanese-ceramic-and-Chinas
I would fire any stupid git that thinks they can tell the difference between Japanese and Chinese pottery just from a video. Because they cannot. But thanks for trying!
Why are so many folks so snarky? I really enjoy watching what Drew gets to do and I get to see. I've learned a lot and like the whole show. Thanks.
deep seated jealously usually...
It makes them feel big to drag someone else down.

I like the man who explains the article and the price.
"50p for the Ming vase?"
"Well I'm a farmer so I will push you hard to 75p"
£375
Damn shame that oil lamp was electrified, that completely ruins it in my opinion. A working oil lamp is worth allot more money.
Fabulous farm.
Im more interested in the farm....lovely place
Drew should have started low with her and then bid higher, gee I think Drew is losing it!
Yes, The lamp seems more Chinese than Japanese.........and that is a good thing as Chinese items have gone way up.

Beautiful 🌹 place
The lamp doesn't make cassis. How did it get that title? Lol
If he had offered her £100 for the Japanese vase, she would have asked for £150. So all those who like to criticise him...grow up!
That's Chinese vase. Not japanese. Lol. 😂 I live in Japan and I never seen a vase like that with dragons and flowers to be called Japanese vase.

@@BillOweninOttawaare you ok? .....you sounds psychotic.........
✔️
If I owned his business and he was my buyer.....he would be fired.

Why would you fire the most successful antiques and oddities dealer in the UK? Be serious.
JAPANESE NOT JAPANSE. :)
I think the lamp was Chinese not Japanese...
Biggest waste of time!
Something's off here... Drew didn't rob an elderly person?! How unusual.
I've seen many an episode where Drew gave more than the person asked.
@@thistlegal2154 That's like saying a burglar isn't a thief because he hasn't robbed every house he's been in.
