About the Item

A striking 19th century Chinese cloisonné urn, circa 1870, featuring richly enameled surfaces and bold bronze beast form handles. The body is beautifully decorated in traditional cloisonné technique, with intricate wirework and vibrant enamels forming auspicious floral motifs and scrolling patterns in rich shades of blue, turquoise, green, red, and gold. The impressive beast handles are cast in bronze, adding sculptural depth and mythical symbolism, a hallmark of Qing dynasty artistry. The combination of cloisonné enamel with finely cast bronze gives this urn a commanding yet elegant presence. A fine and decorative example of late Qing dynasty metalwork, this piece is ideal as a statement accent or as part of a larger cloisonné or Asian antiques collection.
