Vintage Cloisonné Articulated 4" Turquoise ASIAN KOI FISH Ornament Pendant

Description

TURQUOISE & GOLD ARTICULATED CLOISSONE ASIAN KOI FISH
Vintage Pre-2000 Ornament or Pendant
This beautiful 4" Asian Koi trinket is formed from many layers of metal, edged in a gold color and articulated to create the movement of a fish in motion. The fish is decorated using the cloisonné technique of baking colored enamel between raised ridges of the metal. The color of the enamel on this ornament is primarily pale turquoise with darker turquoise on the tips of the tail fins, the dorsal fin, around the dark orange eyes, and on the underside of the fish. The small pectoral and ventral fins are orange, as is the edge around the mouth. This fish has a ring attached at the mouth opening and can be used as either a pendant or an ornament.
This fish was part of a collection of little cloisonné animals and has spent the last 20+ years in a glass front curio cabinet. It is in excellent, like-new condition.
This item is being offered as part of an estate sale.
