Cloisonne: The Origin and Characteristics of Art.

Cloisonné is a filigree enamel technique mainly in blue color. Its name is related to the cultural influence from the Middle East and Arab regions into China. In Arab culture, blue is a predominant color. During the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, Cloisonné experienced unprecedented development and became a splendid and dazzling art form.
