Jan,
Jan you are correct, this cloisonne vase is Japanese, but not primarily for the reason stated, because there were three toed dragons in the Yuan dynasty that can be found on your longquan celedons of the 14th century China.
This type of cloisonne has the combination of wire cell and bodiless cloisonne..., in other words, a partial network of wired cells that form the dragon, and were later filled with the paste-glass, and the mono-colored black glass that provides the backdrop.
Your specimen would date to the late Meiji and early Tashio periods 1910- pre-1920.
Regards, Edward Shumaker
