Shima Enaga-C Cloisonné Brooch

**A Shima Enaga Brooch in Cloisonné: Capturing the Unique Colors and Lustre of the Art Form** The Shima Enaga, a bird that has recently gained immense popularity. This wild bird is found exclusively in Hokkaido. Its charming face seen from the front, combined with its fluffy plumage, makes it look like a living stuffed animal. We've attempted to capture the Shima Enaga's appeal, which can be deceptively simple yet challenging to portray, using the cloisonné technique. Great care has been taken in applying the enamel, with a focus on achieving a beautiful white finish. Gold accents have been kept minimal to enhance its simple, endearing charm. We've created several variations of this plump, rounded form. We hope you'll find a cherished companion to accompany you. *The photos are of a sample. This item will be made to order.
