A well made Japanese cloisonné vase. The alternating dragon and phoenix chevron panels symbolize harmony and balance. Areas of flower, vine and pendant decoration. Lots of engaging, balanced color. Sparkling goldstone embellishment technique demonstrated in dark green background on the shoulder. Some interesting areas of mottled color enamel details. Meiji era (1868 - 1912). Very good condition. Height, about 7 1/4 inches (18.4 cm)
