Re: Re: Cloisonne Wine Ewer |
Posted By: Cal Posted Date: Jan 31, 2010 (09:56 PM) |
Message The general shape of the ewer is a centuries-old one. Dating 1930s-later surmised from muddy colors of enamels and poor finishing. Could have been made during Japanese occupation. Present Chinese enamel work can be much finer in quality. If you visit museums you can see really nice examples of cloisonn� work, both Chinese and Japanese. General guides to Chinese and East Asian 'antiques' also usually picture a few examples. Good luck, Cal Post a Response |
