<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Skans, post: 10014436, member: 89022&quot;]My mother was an avid antique collector and also a dealer who had a brick and mortar store for many decades. After her passing, I inherited a number of her collections.&nbsp; While Mom tried to teach me all that she knew about her collections through out the years, I only picked up on about 30% of the information she tried to pass along.&nbsp; So, now I am on a bit of a quest to fill in some of my knowledge gaps.</p><p><br /></p><p>I tend to know a fair bit about Japanese Cloisonne (1800&#039;s - 1950) and the various styles/artisans. Not quite as much about antique Chinese Cloisonne (pre-1900&#039;s). I generally prefer Japanese Cloisonne, particularly from the &quot;golden age&quot;.&nbsp; I have even added to my Mom&#039;s collection over the years, hopefully enhancing it a bit.&nbsp; I can certainly appreciate some of the really nice older pieces of Chinese Cloisonne as well, and have a few examples.&nbsp; However, it is much more difficult to find really fine examples of 150-300+ year old Chinese Cloisonne that I can afford.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Would be interested in hearing from others who are knowledgeable in this area!</p><p><br /></p><p>Oh, I am linking to a cloisonne bowel I posted photos of - anyone know anything about it??? <a href="https://www.antiquers.com/conversations/chinese-cloisonne-bowl-circa-1870.34076/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.antiquers.com/conversations/chinese-cloisonne-bowl-circa-1870.34076/">https://www.antiquers.com/conversations/chinese-cloisonne-bowl-circa-1870.34076/</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
