A set of 5 small handmade Chinese dishes that have been decorated with flowers in a cloisonne matrix. The black background color sets off the colorful flowers.
The copper dishes have been coated with glass enamels in a basic black with colorful flowers as decoration. The backs are a turquoise enamel with shallow brass foot rings. The mouth rims are also a brass color over copper. The dishes don't match. Three dishes have floral sprays and are thinner. Two are the same with prunus trees and are heavier.
Four dishes have the word CHINA enameled in the center of the base. One dish is missing this mark.
MEASUREMENTS
Each coaster – 3 ¾ in (9.5 cm) diameter x 9/16 in (1.4 cm) deep. Weighs 9.7 oz.
CONDITION
Three dishes show wear to the top surfaces. The coaster with the smaller flower also has some losses on the front near the rim. Four of the dishes have enamel losses on the backs. The flower colors are still bright.
A set of five small Chinese cloisonne dishes that would make great coasters. There is so much hand work.
