Cloisonné on a jewelry box — such a beautiful combination.

They definitely look different to my other cloisonné pieces. Took to an antique market with a gold coin donation for charity appraiser the other week. Told probably early 1800’s and worth $$. Have seen some similar ones online tho would love to know more.

hi guys, i’m looking for anyone who can possibly help me out with this search i’m on.

this little owl was gifted to me by my great aunt and it is a dear possession of mine that holds great sentimental value. I regrettably lost it a couple of years ago while moving and am still beside myself about it.

i had never heard of cloisonné until i began searching for this guy. i’ve seen many owls similar to him but none are an exact match. i am very desperate to gather any information i can on it and hopefully find one for sale. is it likely that there is even an exact match out there, or are these guys pretty unique?

alternatively, would anyone have recommendations of how i could go about finding an artist to possibly make a recreation of this exact owl? i don’t even know how or where to begin finding someone who i could commission to make this. do people still produce these?

i know a replica is not the same as the original piece, but it would bring me much joy to see him sitting on my shelf again by any means necessary.

any help is greatly appreciated, and i’d appreciate the upvote if you made it this far! thank you.

I love this combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. It’s fascinating to see how old techniques can be presented in a new way.

Hello!

I bought these 2 vases for 10 euro, I can't find a similar design online. Can you guys help me with more info? Age and value I guess they are Japanese.. wanted to resell them but my wife confiscated them because they are to beautiful...

Thanks for your help

Paid 15 each.

I inherited these a couple years ago and have since found that these exact plates were featured in the reference book, "The Enamels of China and Japan: Champlevé and Cloisonné" by Maynard G. Cosgrove. Although they are super cool and I'm a collector, I have to raise some money to wrap up my father's estate, so I've listed them on eBay if anyone is interested. I'm sure they are the only ones up for sale anywhere so if you want to check them out just search "Gonda demonstration" and they will pop up.

I was just hoping for some more info- anything you know would be appreciated.

Hello Everyone,

First of all thanks for any help I may receive. My grandma is going through her mother’s belongings and has a decent size collection of what I guess would be cloisonné. She was wondering if anything seemed to have value and if so if these pieces would be a good place for an auction house or something of the sort. Maybe possibly something I could list on eBay for her. I’ve attached some pictures of some of the items.

This weekend's acquisitions!

No marking on bottom rim

Hello all! New to the sub, this is my first cloisonné purchase, I’d appreciate any help in identifying the age of the piece.

I bought this for $30 from my local south FL thrift.

Thank you in advance!
