Cloisonné eggs are decorative art pieces typically made from metal, often copper or brass, and are characterized by their vibrant enamel designs. The technique involves creating compartments (cloisons) using thin metal strips, which are then filled with colored enamel and fired to achieve a glossy finish. These eggs are often associated with the Russian jeweler Peter Carl Fabergé, who created exquisite Fabergé eggs in the early 20th century. Today, cloisonné eggs are popular collectibles and can vary in design and craftsmanship.

How do you identify cloisonne plate?

The simplest way is by touch. Cloisonne is the process in which enamel is "laid" into a piece by dividing it with gold wire. The process is then fired, and the result is the brilliant colors and delicate gold tracing. This process also produces an extremely fine mosaic effect which can be felt. The transfer method does not have the tiny mosaic feel, it is perfectly smooth and the cloisonne is not.
