About the Item

A large pair of Meiji Period Japanese Cloisonne Enamel Double Dragon Vases, 19th century. Japanese cloisonne enamel dragon vases are highly sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts around the world. These vases were made during the Meiji era, which lasted from 1868 to 1912, and were produced using a technique called cloisonne enamel. Cloisonne enamel involves creating compartments or cells, typically using metal wires, on a metal object and then filling the cells with colored enamel paste. The object is then fired in a kiln to fuse the enamel and create a smooth, glossy surface. The dragon is a symbol of power and strength in Japanese culture, and it is often depicted in art and mythology. These vases feature intricate designs and vibrant colors, with the double dragons on each vase depicted in various poses and settings. Measures: 24" high x 10" diameter Very good condition, slight scratches normal with age and use.
