Chinese Deco-era Cloisonne Beads - Do Any Exist?

Does anyone have any examples of Chinese cloisonne beads that they can definitely date to the 40 years between 1910 and 1949?

I've found a few examples of cloisonne-style beads decorated with twisted wire and enamel, similar to Russian enamel works, and of course Canton enamel silver beads.

But no actual cloisonne beads - i.e., cloisons formed of metal ribbons - appear until the late 1930s.
