Cloisonné is an ancient decorative art technique, traditionally associated with metalwork, where metal strips or wires (cloisons) are soldered to a metal object's surface.
These compartments are then filled with enamel paste, which is fired and polished. This technique originated in the Near East and was later adopted and refined in China, becoming particularly popular during the Ming and Qing dynasties for creating exquisite vases, bowls, and decorative objects.
Decorative eggs, often made using cloisonné or similar enameling techniques, became popular as collectibles and decorative items, especially in the mid-20th century. These pieces frequently feature floral motifs, birds, or geometric patterns, reflecting traditional artistic styles. They are often displayed on stands, adding to their ornamental appeal as desk or shelf decorations.
