Brass enameled cloisonne Ring/trinket box with Iris flower motif
The art of cloisonne originated in Cyprus in the 13th century B.C. The technique found its way to China during the Ming Dynasty where they perfected the art form. The word is from the French "cloison" meaning partition and was used in teh 1800's to describe the use of metal wires to create designs on brass that would then be filled with colored enamel and be fired several times in a kiln to create the glossy colored designs.

I have been safely shipping vintage items (including stemware and glass) for 5 years. I use recycled shipping materials when ever possible and pack items securely in layers of protective paper, bubble wrap and then encase them in packing paper to ensure the safest possible delivery.
I regularly scour a variety of venues for vintage (and the occasional antique) item. These include estate sales, flea markets, thrift stores, garage sales, private sales and antique shops.
I have been selling vintage decor since 2019. I started with a shop in a small town in upstate New York and them transitioned to a vintage booth in several local vintage and antique malls. I have sold on my own website for 2 years and still have my vintage booth in North Tonawanda, NY.
