A Japanese Ginbari Cloisonne Double Vase (formerly sold by Christie's)

  
A Japanese Ginbari(silver base or silver foil) cloisonne double vase with wisteria and iris pattern. The vase is beautifully decorated by transparent enamels on the silver base. The vase looks extremely gorgeous under the natural sun light due to the high reflection of the silver base. The photos do not do it justice. The conjuncted double vase style is very rarely seen. Generally very good condition, except for a few light scratches or hairlines, and some oxidations or discoloration to the silver base. Please refer to the pictures.

This is very common for Ginbari cloisonne as the enamel does not adhere to silver base as tightly as copper base. It is extremely difficult to find a perfect Ginbari cloisonne item of over 100 year's history. 30cm or 1 ft; Width: approx. Now available at a much discounted price.

As a serious cloisonne collector please do not miss the chance. This item is in the category "Antiques\Asian Antiques\Japan\Vases". The seller is "minda840" and is located in this country: HK. This item can be shipped worldwide.
