This striking Champlevé brass and cloisonné floral vase showcases the renowned Japanese combination of intricate metalwork and vivid enameling: recessed designs are engraved into solid brass, then carefully filled with vibrant colored enamels using the traditional champlevé technique, and completed with fine cloisonné floral motifs.
Features:
- Material: Brass with hand-engraved (champlevé) and cloisonné enamel floral decorations
- Craftsmanship: Traditional Japanese enameling with ornate floral patterns in blue, red, and gold tones
- Handles: Decorative brass side handles in stylized animal shapes, typical of Meiji and early 20th-century Japanese vases
- Dimensions: 8.5"w x 12"h
- Condition: Excellent vintage condition with vivid colors, beautiful vintage patina, and minimal wear
- Origin: Japan, c. late 19th to early 20th century
Notes:
This vase is a wonderful example of Japanese champlevé and cloisonné artistry, with vivid enamel floral designs on an engraved brass body. The handwork visible in the recessed motifs and the smooth, glossy enamel demonstrates an attention to detail characteristic of Japanese decorative arts. Cloisonné, or "shippo" in Japanese, is revered for its bright hues and technical mastery, and champlevé refers specifically to the engraved and enamel-filled sections that create depth and intricate contrast.
Estimated Value: $300
An exceptional gift for collectors of Asian antiques or those who appreciate the fine traditions of Japanese enamelwork.
