    I am assuming this is cloisonné, but I have never had anything this tiny.

    This piece is 1 1/4" to the top of the lid & is 1 13/16" across. No marks that I could find.

    Any information would be wonderful!! :D:D

    Sure looks like cloisonné to me. Including that blue interior.

    That's the smallest piece of cloisonné I've seen, by far...Lovely, Peggy!

    China used to make series of cloisonné miniatures, this could be one of a series.

    That one has more age IMHO than the square tea box that I like. Unusual to see that the bottom is also cloisonne.
