This beautiful little Chinese Cloisonne pin dish dates to between c1910 & 1935 and the base metal is bronze.

This is the second of these particular dishes that I'm selling at the moment They're slightly different, although each has the same 'theme' of having prunus on a black ground with tight swirls. I'm also selling a few others pieces of cloisonne from my own collection.

The date and origin of this piece can be assessed by the fine & tight cloisonne swirls, often shown in quality pieces of this era.

The central subject of the prunus bush is also very detailed and highlighted even more with this unusually rare black background.

Items of this quality are incredibly hard to come by.
