Large Early 20th-Century Chinese Cloisonné Pumpkin Box/Centerpiece, 1910s
Located in Bagnolo Mella, Brescia
An exquisite early 20th-century Chinese cloisonné box, masterfully crafted in the 1910s, shaped like a pumpkin with a generous 30 cm diameter. This rare and highly decorative piece showcases the refined artistry of the ancient cloisonné enamel technique, renowned for its intricate detailing and vibrant hues. The exterior is adorned with an exceptional palette of yellow, sky blue, deep blue, violet, and red, with the colors remaining beautifully rich and vivid despite its age. The interior is coated in a stunning azure blue enamel, offering a striking contrast that enhances its elegance.
