This pretty pony is modern Chinese cloisonne. Cloisonne pieces are made of metal (usually brass or copper) with thin wires welded on to create designs. Enamel is then hand-painted into each segmented space, then the whole thing is fired in a kiln and then polished. Gold paint (sometimes real gold leaf) is often added for bright, metallic accents. The result is a beautiful, colorful, one-of-a-kind, hand-colored figurine.
This colorful fellow is Factory Mint, featuring a dragon scale design behind some scrollwork, and wears a black saddle with a lotus blossom design. He even has a matching jade green browband (? or forelock?). He appears to have gold plated hooves, tail and accents.
Size: 3" L x 2.75" H
