Cloisonné Vase Description
This is a beautifully crafted cloisonné vase, showcasing intricate enamel work over a metal body. The vase features a vibrant colour palette, with detailed floral and foliate motifs. Cloisonné is an ancient technique where fine metal wires are fused onto a surface, creating compartments (cloisons) that are then filled with enamel paste and fired. This process results in a durable and visually striking piece of art, often associated with Chinese and Japanese craftsmanship.
