Antique Japanese Meiji Era (late 1800's) Silver Cloisonné Vase Maple & Sparrows
About the Item
Available from Shogun's Gallery in Portland, Oregon for over 40 years specializing in Asian Arts & Antiques.
This is a unique Japanese Meiji era (c. 1880) ornate Cloisonné vase. Made of silver, copper alloys and vitreous glass enamel. Marked "SILVER"
This vase is 9.5" tall by 4.5" in diameter (24 x 11.5 cm). It weighs 1lbs 6oz. Having been carefully displayed for nearly five decades since acquired by a dedicated local collector, it remains in fine condition except for some damage that can be seen in the close up photos.
Japanese cloisonné is an exquisite art form that marries meticulous craftsmanship with vibrant aesthetics. 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.
