Description from the seller

Chinese Cloisonné Enamel Vases & Miniature Teapot
Introducing a stunning four-piece collection of authentic Chinese Cloisonné, showcasing one of the ancient world's most intricate and labor-intensive decorative arts. Each piece features meticulously hand-applied brass wires forming cellular networks (cloisons) that are filled with vibrant vitreous enamels, fired, and polished to a brilliant, glass-like luster.
* Key Highlights of the Collection:
* The Master Centerpiece Vase: A grand baluster-shaped vase featuring a striking dark chocolate-brown ground. It is beautifully adorned with a large, blooming pink peony-the traditional Chinese symbol of wealth, honor, and prosperity.
* The Matching Accent Vases: Two complementary small vases that provide a beautiful contrast in palette:
* Imperial Red Vase (Left): Showcases a rich, deep burgundy field decorated with delicate seasonal flora.

Cobalt Blue Vase (Right): Features an electric lapis ground showcasing a pristine blooming lotus, the timeless symbol of purity and grace.
• The Miniature Artisan Teapot: A delightful collector's piece featuring a clean white-enamel background detailed with tight floral scrolls, geometric borders, and a fully functional, removable lid.
• Classic Export Craftsmanship: Dating from the late 20th century (c. 1970s-1990s), this collection features the signature heavy brass rims and exposed turquoise-enamel bases typical of fine export hollowware from renowned Beijing workshops.
