What is cloisonne art?
Cloisonne is an ancient art form invented by the French and perfected by the Chinese. Cloisonne predates stained glass art. Made from brass, copper and colored enamel, cloisonne is crafted by hand and the finished item is fired in a kiln and gilded. As a result of this intricate process, every cloisonne piece is a beautiful, durable and unique work of art.
