CLOISONNE ENAMEL
Japanese cloisonne work, distinguished by the jewel-like brilliance of its coloured enamels, was a great success in Europe when it was introduced, and remains a desirable collectable today.
Adriatic Jewelry: Jewelry made during the 16th-17th centuries in Italy along the Adriatic coast and in the neighbouring Greek islands. They often used cloisonne enamelling. Ship pendants and crescent shaped earrings were common.
