Vintage Chinese Canton Enamel Butterfly Copper Vase Hand Painted Cloisonne
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:20091344 | Region of Origin: Chinese |
Primary Material: Cloisonne | Product: Vase |
Features: Handpainted |
Incredibly detailed and extremely large Chinese vase, hand decorated in cloisonne style canton enamel on copper. The outside has been beautifully painted with flowers, birds and butterflies in wonderful bright colours on a white background. This is much larger than vases of this type I have come across, standing at a whopping 55cm on the stand. Carved wooden base is included with the sale.
The vase dates to the mid 20th century peoples republic era. The majority of th...e vase is in fantastic condition, just a small patch of enamel that has been re-glued; however the base has sustained some enamel loss and a large dent. Luckily this only affects one side so the vase can easily be positioned to hide this damage.
