PROVENANCE / MAKER NOTES (IF KNOWN):
Cloisonné enameling was perfected in China during the Ming and Qing dynasties, later continuing into the 20th century as fine export and decorative art. The white ground with cloud-scroll pattern and turquoise base are characteristic of mid to late 20th century Beijing workshop pieces, reflecting both technical skill and artistic continuity with earlier Imperial designs.
