Subject:Information about vase
Posted By: Sandra Cluley Tue, Dec 02, 2014 IP: 121.217.240.245

Hi there,
I am in Australia and have a very small (9cm) Cloisonne vase and am not sure where to start to find out about it. I have others but this seems different in design and method as well as colours and appears to be quite old.
The blue on the base is very deep and believe this to be an indication of age but can't find a guide.
The pics don't do the piece justice and the brown background is quite dark decorated with black serpents/dragons. The gold edging/wiring is very fine and not raised as is the rest of the paintwork. More modern pieces seem to have a raised uneven finish.
I understand if you can't help but would love to know some more about it.
Many thanks from Oz for your time,
Sandy
