Chinese Export Cloisonne Copper Enameled Vase
done with flowers and foilage and geometric pattern!
measures 6-3/4 inches tall!
top opening is 2 1/8" and the bottom is 1 7/8"
Under the upper rim there is a speck of enamel missing
( can't see it unless you turn upside down)
which reveals the base copper metal.
Engraved "CHINA" on the bottom
It has some age pitting....this is definitely an older piece...
This was enameled on copper and then plated with brass on the inside and the bottom
Slightly footed with enamel missing on the underside of the curve near the base
It seems like the base was smashed slightly that caused this damage,and therfore it has a slight wobble when first placed on a table ( fine after that).
