Pictured is a decorative Chinese dish featuring a colorful bird motif with floral accents and a blue scale-pattern background. The surface appears to be an enamel-style design sealed under a clear epoxy or acrylic coating, allowing the pattern beneath to remain visible and glossy.
The base metal appears to be copper or copper-tone created in an artistic design, and the underside is marked China. While the piece resembles cloisonné in appearance, it is best described as a decorative enameled dish rather than traditional cloisonné.
The dish measures approximately 5 inches in diameter and is suitable for display, light décor use, or as a small trinket dish.
