About the Item
Large Chinese hardstone tree model with birds in a cloisonné enamel pot
Chinese, 20th Century
Height 42cm, width 31cm, depth 23cm
Crafted in 20th century China, this superb objet d’art depicts a lush flower tree with charming birds perching on the branches, an unusual addition to objects of this type.
A stunning cloisonné enamel planter adorns the lower half of the piece. Among the bright blue enamel ground is a sea of red, yellow, and blue swirling patterns. A large chrysanthemum flower features prominently in the centre of the planter and is framed by large green leaves. Flanking it are two other flowers. The top and bottom are gilt adding a pop of gold to the piece.
Emerging from the planter is a brown metal tree trunk from which a selection of thread-covered branches are growing. Each one terminates with yellow hardstone petals (most likely crafted from yellow jade) arranged to form flowers. Vivid orange beads act as the stigmas adding a pop of colour to the tree. Two hardstone birds, most likely carved from jade, are perching on the branches among the flowers.
Of a large size with unusual features, this Chinese work of art would be a superb home décor addition.

Chinese Hardstone Floral Tree in a Cloisonné Enamel Planter
Located in London, GB
Chinese hardstone floral tree in a cloisonné enamel planter
Chinese, 20th Century
Height 19cm, width 13cm, depth 11cm
This stunning flower model combines several semi-precious hardstones with a petite cloisonné enamel planter. Sitting atop a resin-treated metal trunk are multiple hardstone blooms, with materials including lapis lazuli, rose quartz, and carnelian. Each blossom is centred by a stigma, which comprises yellow beads held together by thread-wrapped wire. The vibrant and pastel shades of the flowers are excellently contrasted by the dark green leaves, which are expertly carved from nephrite.
The tree sits within a black cloisonné enamel planter. The pot is decorated with pastel pink flowers surrounded by green leaves, complementing the floral theme of the object. Miniature gold clouds cover the entirety of the pot, which in Chinese culture symbolise oncoming good fortune.
Bringing together many precious materials and historic techniques, this beautiful Chinese work...

Chinese hardstone flower model in a cloisonné enamel flowerpot
Chinese, 20th Century
Height 18cm, width 11cm, depth 11cm
This intricate flower model combines super cloisonné enamelling with several carved semi-precious stones, making it a highly collectable object.
A metal trunk is set within the planter, treated with resin to evoke the natural texture of the bark. The trompe l’oeil illusion is continued via the branches, which are comprised of wire wrapped with brown thread. The branches are capped with a number of nephrite leaves and hardstone blooms, which contrast dark green shades with light red and pink flowers. The petals are carved from carnelian, rose quartz, and jade, and these hardstones can connote symbolic symbolism such as strength and healing. Each bloom is centred by a beaded stigma, the bright colours of which stand out against the hardstones.
