FINE RARE! Taisho Era Copper Cloisonné Box gold & silver inlaid Shibayama panel

REMARKABLE CIRCA 1920 FIRED ENAMEL ON COPPER CLOISONNE' BOX. APPLIED GOLD & SILVER INLAY DECORATED SHIBAYAMA LACQUER PANEL. A treasure from my personal collection of traditional Asian decorative arts.

Stellar early 20th century craftsmanship in the demanding process - evidenced by use of fine copper wires forming cells, precisely controlled colors and uniform polished surfaces. The artisan achieved both technical excellence and beauty. Exquisitely enameled with exotic flowers and delicate scrollwork on coral colored top border and walls.

Central black lacquer Shibayama tablet with delicate incised precious silver and gold bamboo trees and birds in flight on relief-textured gilt surround in bold copper frame against a rich cobalt blue field. Kindly review descriptive information for condition notations and study the photographs for details.

1.6" high, 4.75" wide, 3.5 deep.
