This art form was developed over 6,000 years ago in China. Each design is individually stamped into brass and plated in gold, silver, nickel or black plating. The recessed areas are then filled with a hard fired TruCloisonne paste (available in 144 colors) and then hand polished to a porcelain like finish. This process is repeated many times until perfect. The chosen back attachment is soldered onto each piece and after a final inspection each piece is individually poly bagged. Size is based on largest dimension across.
