Description: Japanese Ginbari Cloisonne Akasuke Pigeon Blood Style Lamps Circa 1890-1912, Meiji Period. Ginbari is a Japanese cloisonne where textured silver foil is wrapped around the metal body (normally brass) and wire silver closons before the transparent enamel is applied. The term 'Akasuke' refers to a special pigeon blood coloured red. This is from an antique vase, created during the Meiji Period. With the country growing move towards decorative crafts during the Meiji period, the skill was taken up by others, including extremely highly skilled workmen. Antique Japanese cloisonné of the Meiji period was unrivaled in quality and finesse of detail. The Japanese, more than any other culture, have always had a sense of almost obsessive design and quality in respect of anything they make. These crafts bloomed as never before during the Meiji imperial period (1868 – 1912). (From article by Guest &Gray, Chinese-Porcelain-Art.com) Dimensions are 24” x 7”.
