A CHINESE GILT CLOISONNE FLORAL DISPLAY DISH

拍品描述

Measuring 11.8 cm in both length and width, this circular ornamental dish features a polished gilded rim framing an intricately worked cloisonne interior. A vivid turquoise enamel ground forms the backdrop for fine gilded wire partitions that trace winding scrolling foliage. A central blossoming lotus is encircled by a colourful segmented border, while additional vibrant multi-tonal flower heads radiate across the inner field, employing rich glazes of scarlet, sapphire blue, ivory and golden yellow. Precise metal cloison work lends crisp definition to every curling vine and petal. Elegantly balanced in layout, this refined plate is a superb addition to premium collections of traditional Chinese cloisonne decorative metalwork.
