This pair of miniature Japanese cloisonne vases from the Meiji period follows a classical vase form with a flanged lip, measuring 9 cm high, 6 cm wide, and 6 cm deep. The construction uses enamel, copper, and brass, finished with a dark ground complemented by multicolored details. Detailed decoration covers the bodies, featuring butterfly medallions, floral neck borders, and scrolled wirework. Suitable for placement on a mantelpiece within a gentleman's library, these items add traditional craftsmanship to a home today. The multicolored scheme displays delicate patterns set against deep tones, highlighting the intricate wirework and enamel work across the surfaces of both vessels.

FAQs

Japanese cloisonne enamel is a decorative art form where thin metal wires are affixed to a metal body to form designs, which are then filled with coloured glass paste enamel and fired.

Traditional cloisonne vases feature a base metal body, typically copper or brass, combined with brass or silver wire cloisons and vitreous mineral enamels.

Authentic Meiji period pieces generally display precise wirework, dark or adventurine enamel grounds, intricate floral or animal motifs, and high-quality enamel finishing on both the exterior and interior rims.

Miniature cloisonne vases can be arranged in small groupings on a mantelpiece, styled inside a glazed display cabinet, or placed on a bookshelf alongside leather-bound volumes.

Clean enamel surfaces gently using a dry, soft microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid chemical solvents, abrasive cleaners, or submerging the piece in water, which can damage exposed metal wires and enamel surfaces.
