This is a unique blue Japanese Meiji era (c. 1890) ornate Cloisonné vase with butterflies.
Made of copper, copper alloys and vitreous glass enamel.
Having been carefully displayed for nearly five decades since acquired by a dedicated local collector, it remains in fine condition.
This is a perfect example of Meiji era Japanese cloisonné. This is one of over 110 beautiful examples of this exquisite Japanese art currently being offered by Shogun's Gallery.
