I found these at a Thrift Store on Friday 13th, a lucky day, for Thrifting! :^)
The one on the left is made of glass beads melted into the brass design, the right one is hand painted enamel over the brass design. I like both of them, but don't know their age. The left one is unmarked, on the blue bottom, and the right one has a hammered in China die mark in 2 spots on the unpainted bottom of the small brass dish.
Thanks for looking any comments, or questions welcome! :^)
The left is definitely Chinese too and from post war time. I had a vase in this decor once - long gone :(
Sometimes we have to let things go...or not! :^) Thanks for your comment Karen!
Thank you all for stopping by, and giving some love! :^)
Thank you so much for this information CG5! :^) I know very little about the different kinds of cloisonné, a little about how it's made, but nothing on figuring age, unless it looks old! LOL I do have a few more pieces, some older ones, but I mainly buy them, because I like the amount of work that goes into making these beautiful, sometimes utilitarian pieces of art.
Thank you all again for the love! :^)
