Miniature Cloisonné Enamel Duck – Chinese Export Style Ornament

£20.00

On offer is a rare and beautiful miniature cloisonné enamel duck, crafted in the traditional Chinese export style. This delicate figural ornament showcases vivid jewel-toned enamels in blue, turquoise, white, and ochre, applied using the centuries-old cloisonné method — where fine metal wires form the outline of each feather, then filled with enamel and fired to a lustrous finish.

Whether you’re a collector or a lover of meaningful décor, this piece offers a tactile link to global craftsmanship — and a timeless decorative accent for shelves, cabinets, or curio collections.

Crafted with care and rich in visual character, this miniature cloisonné enamel duck serves equally as a display piece, a conversation starter, or a lasting heirloom.
