Very fine quality cloisonné vase with bright colors and a rounded shape with a narrow neck and floral decoration.
Cloisonné, also called Byzantium luster, is a technique of artistic enamel decoration, in which thin threads (filigrees) or strips or small metal partitions (usually copper), cells or alveoli (called cloisons in French), are welded or glued to a support slab of the work to be built; subsequently, in the areas raised by the metal, enamel is poured, thus obtaining a sort of mosaic whose tiles are exactly circumscribed by the metal strips.
Material: brass and enamel Period: 20th century Origin: China Condition: excellent, intact (look at the photographs, consider the age) Measurements: diameter = 12 cm - height = 18 cm
