Japanese Cloisonne Vase
In an effort to expand the realm of the types of Japanese antiques that I cover, I present to you the first of hopefully many posts on the topic of Japanese pottery and enamelware.
I don’t know much about cloisonne, so I was pleasantly surprised when I came across this video appraising the amazing piece pictured above. This vessel represents an important time in the advancement of cloisonne technique in Japan during the Meiji period, which is why I thought it was worth sharing with you. I will refrain from regurgitating the information that you will glean from watching the video, but I will do so in my future posts on the subject. I promise it won’t be as gross as it sounds.
