C201 Cloisonne Urn

The time-honored process originated in Beijing in the 12th century. Tiny copper filigree partitions are created and through a process of soldering and heating put on a metal urn. The enamel glaze is hand painted into each partition and kiln fired, a process repeated several times until the surface is smooth. Each urn is then ground, polished and finally electroplated with a thin coating of gold creating an elegant finish.

Top opening lid, could be sealed with adhesive.
