Meiji period cloisonne refers to enamelware produced in Japan between 1868 and 1912, a golden era marked by technical mastery, intricate wirework known as cloisons, and pictorial realism.

Authentic pieces are typically constructed with a base body of copper or brass, decorated with soldered metal wires to form cells, which are then filled with vitreous enamel paste and fired multiple times.

Authenticity is assessed by examining the fineness of the wirework, the weight and composition of the metal base, the presence of hairline cracking or pitting in the enamel, and often signature marks on the base or rim.

Display the vase as a focal point on a mantelpiece, bookshelf, or side table, allowing its vibrant colours and metallic sheen to contrast against neutral contemporary surroundings.

Preserve the piece by dusting gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, and keeping it away from direct sunlight and high humidity to protect the delicate enamel and metalwork.
