AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A cloisonné vase with a dark blue ground decorated with a pair of egrets perched on a weeping willow branch and another in flight.

Silver wire details and polychrome enamels.

Japanese cloisonné is one of the most refined forms of decorative art. Originally adopted from China, the technique was perfected by Japanese artisans during the Meiji period. The technique involves the use of vibrant polychrome enamels that create a metallic, glossy effect.

The vase is in very good condition. Please refer to the pictures for further details.

The item will be carefully packed and shipped via DHL or FedEx, accompanied by the original certificate of authenticity issued by Mastromauro Japanese art gallery based in Milan, Italy.
