    Hi,
    Wondering if anyone recognizes this guy’s maker. Do you think it’s vintage? Is there a name for this? It’s not exactly cloisonné. That’s all that comes to mind for me. He’s approx 4”
    Thank you for any help.

    the title is supposed to say age and not she

    I can’t see the clasp quite well enough, but I’m inclined to forties into fifties does Indian/asian.

    Hi @Ownedbybear here are close ups Ty! I was thinking 60’s or 70’s. It’s not cloisonné what would you call this?

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    It is sweet!
    Can't help with your question, though.

    Based on the back and the pin clasp style I'm much more inclined to thin the last 20 years, with a design suggesting cloisonne' enamel.

    Hinge is between the wars, and that looks like one of those odd fiddly double rollovers.
