Pair of Antique-Style Beijing Cloisonné Vases – Handmade Floral Enamel

Bring the jewel-toned splendor of the Chinese imperial workshops into your home with our Pair of Antique-Style Beijing Cloisonné Vases. Beijing has been the heart of cloisonné, or jingtailan, since the Ming dynasty. Craftsmen there perfected the art of shaping fine metal wires into flowing patterns and filling each tiny section with bright enamel. These vases carry on that tradition with rich floral designs that shimmer like gemstones set in gold.

They're made to be displayed as a matching pair, the classic way vases were set out in traditional Chinese homes. Balanced arrangements were believed to bring harmony and good fortune. Place them on either side of a mantel, console table or sideboard, frame an entryway, or give a study shelf a touch of heritage. Five heights, from a small 6-inch pair to a striking 15-inch pair, let you choose a quiet accent or a statement display. They also make a meaningful gift for a wedding, a new home or a collector of Eastern art.
