Welcome to our newest store "Dallas Valley Discoveries". For more collectibles, please also visit our larger store "Mena Country Sales", both specializing in vintage and antique collectibles. This listing is for a gorgeous vintage, enameled and gold gilded porcelain Cloisonne bangle bracelet.
This bracelet is 1.45 inches wide and really stands out. This bracelet looks like cloisonne, but it's actually painted porcelain, which like cloisonne, is a gorgeous and quality art form. The gold on this looks like it could be wire, but it is actually gold gilt paint.
It's expertly painted and the lines show no bleeding. The gold is also thick and stands out on the surface, which makes it look like wire, The porcelain is enameled in a gorgeous shade of blue, with accents of green, turquoise, pink, white, and gold, with just a hint of a splatter of red. The bracelet's interior is a turquoise blue color and the outer side is a royal or lapis blue color. The edges of the bracelet are gilded in gold. Judging from the color and texture of the gold used in this piece, I believe that it is actual gold paint made with real gold.The bracelet is covered in a floral design of Asian/Chinese inspiration. The flowers are expertly defined with thin, gold lines, in a cloisonne styled art form.
The bracelet is a circular bangle style with an inner diameter of about 2.5 inches. The bracelet's width is 1.45 inches. It's a puffy bangle style, that has a bowed outer surface, with its thickness measuring about 4 mm. The colors are vibrant, and the detail is just remarkable, even more-so when viewed under magnification because you can see how the gold is so precisely painted. It's truly a work of art and an heirloom piece to pass down through the ages!
The bracelet is in beautiful vintage condition. The pictures are considered part of the description. Please review the images and use the zoom feature for a better idea of detail and condition. I would be happy to answer any questions you might have.
