Subject:Tibetan cloisonne dragon
Posted By: Chris J. Wed, Jun 14, 2017 IP: 89.67.1.108

I believe that this cloisonne dragon originate from Tibet, 18-th century. Enamel is mostly black and blue, green and red.It is partially fire gilt (on spine and belly). Measurements are ca. 22,5 x 10 cm. I would appreciate other opinions on this dragon.

It may be that your dragon had a different perch at one time. See links herewith.

Best regards,

This style of dragon appears as a handle on ewers perhaps dating to the last quarter of the 19th century or later.

Here is an example from the George Walter Vincent Smith collection, and a few others.
