This traditional technique reached a level of extreme mastery in the Meiji era and involves adorning a metal base, often copper or silver, with delicate wire partitions, creating intricate compartments known as \"cloisons.\" These compartments are then meticulously filled with vivid enamel, resulting in a rich tapestry of colors that, after multiple firings and polishing, achieve a glossy, flawless finish. The process demands precision, skill and hundreds of hours, making each piece a testament to the artisan's expertise and dedication. With its captivating patterns, luminous colors, and often intricate inlays, Japanese cloisonné serves as a luxurious and culturally rich addition to any space, seamlessly blending tradition with timeless elegance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Consignment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49274508345661,"sku":"23C0032","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/2348\/3709\/files\/DAC4503A-BFC2-4CB7-A07D-639DC96D5AC9.jpg?v=1724448095","url":"https:\/\/shogunsgallery.com\/products\/antique-japanese-meiji-era-late-1800s-cloisonne-floral-teapot-5","provider":"Shogun's Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
