This is a stunning, complete vintage set of 8 small Chinese Cloisonné enamel canisters/trinket jars in their original fabric-lined presentation case. This collection is an exceptional example of authentic Chinese export artisan craftsmanship from the People\'s Republic of China era.
Standing at 2.25 inches tall, these jars are a highly desirable mid-size collection—much larger than standard 1-inch miniature pillboxes. They make beautiful decorative accents, vanity jars, or cabinet display pieces.
Item Features:
• Complete 8-Piece Set: Features a beautiful variety of rare geometric shapes, including hexagonal, multi-lobed trefoil, kidney/double-lobed, oval, and rectangular pillars.
• Intricate Enamel Work: Vibrant, hand-laid brass wire framework (cloisons) showcasing classic floral, plum blossom, bird, and traditional cloud scroll motifs.
• Original Presentation Box: Housed in its authentic patterned silk/brocade fabric-lined case.
• Provenance Verified: Features the original factory export label on the front, reading \"Made in the People\'s Republic of China\" with official catalog registration code: \"Art No. MC 100-818\".
Condition:
Excellent vintage condition. The enamel surfaces are incredibly glossy, vibrant, and structurally intact. The jar interiors, lid undersides, and external bases feature a beautiful turquoise blue counter-enamel coating with pristine brass rims. True to authentic, hand-fired mid-century cloisonné, the bases show minor natural pitting and firing specks from the kiln process.
Dimensions:
• Individual Jar Height: Approx. 2.25 inches (2 ¼\") each
• Complete set ships safely inside the original presentation box.
