Ingot made of Blue cloisonne ware.What is cloisonne ware?The history of cloisonne enamel ware dates back to the ancient Egyptian civilization.It is known that the golden mask of Tutankhamun was decorated with the same technique as cloisonne ware.The oldest cloisonne enamel ware in Japan is said to be an ornament excavated from a burial mound built at the end of the Kofun period.Cloisonne enamel ware, known as “cloisonne lapis lazuli,” began to be produced around the Edo period (1603-1867) and decorated the belongings and residences of feudal lords in various regions. In cloisonne enamel ware, colors and designs are applied to a base of silver or copper with a glaze made of powdered glass.Some techniques include the use of lines of pure silver at the borders of the colors or the scattering of silver leaf as decoration.In fact, the process does not involve firing the colored and decorated pieces all at once.The piece is fired at the base, painted, and then fired again, often more than 10 times, until it is completed.The finished product, however, is full of vivid and rich colors.Moreover, the colors will never fade.Perhaps it was this longing for the characteristics of cloisonne ware that inspired royalty, who dreamed of eternity, to decorate their bodies with cloisonne ware.SippingDHL,Fedex JP PostInternational BuyersImport duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
