Subject:Chinese Deco-era Cloisonne Beads - Do Any Exist?
Posted By: beadiste Mon, Mar 31, 2014 IP: 24.237.17.47
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.
