Japanese Cloisonné Enamel Box with Landscape and Bird Motifs on Bronze Base Dimensions: Approximately 6 cm diameter x 3 cm height Weight: 69g Materials: Gilded bronze base, enamel glaze, copper wire Description: A Meiji period cloisonné enamel box, featuring a miniature landscape and garden scene meticulously crafted with copper wire by artisans. The base is fully enameled with small pinkish-white flowers, and the sides are adorned with floral and foliage patterns. Having weathered over a century, there are minor areas of glaze loss. Please refer to the photos for these historical marks. As with any vintage item, there might be details not captured in photos or descriptions that you are concerned about. Please feel free to inquire; we are very happy to answer your questions. About the Cloisonné in this Shop: Most of the cloisonné pieces in my collection are early acquisitions, possessing a gentle, warm luster rather than the sharp, bright sheen of new items. During the firing process after the enamel is applied, minor imperfections such as pinholes, small chips, or marks from hand-polishing may occur. These are inherent characteristics of handcrafted items, adding to their unique charm. As these are early collectibles, they naturally bear traces of their history, which I do not intentionally clean, preserving their antique character. Buyers may choose to clean them further if they wish after purchase.
