PORCELAIN AUTHENTICITY TESTING

For Porcelain authenticity testing, you can book your item in here via this form. We will need to know some details about the piece and where the object for authenticity https://www.oxfordauthentication.com/book-item-tl-testing/ testing is located so we can arrange sampling and authenticity testing.

How we sample porcelain

We or one of our accredited sampling agents will use a hollow diamond core drill to remove two cylinder shaped cores from the base or an other unglazed part of the object. The cores are 3-4mm in diameter and 5mm in length. All Porcelain authenticity testing sampling is carried out under running cold water to stop overheating.

Learn more about how the TL testing process works.

Results and certificate

After we have tested your piece, we will issue you with a certificate of authenticity testing. Samples are normally processed within 3-4 weeks and once payment is received, preliminary results can be emailed on request. Original reports are then posted to you.
