The cloisonné technique is an enameling on metal technique that dates back to the Byzantine Empire. The technique reached China around the 12th-13th century. In the 1980s, Robert Kuo began his repertoire with cloisonné and introduced flowing designs without compromising on the technical quality. He also created new matte cloisonné colors that are patented. He took a break from cloisonné to explore the repoussé technique and now returns to designing cloisonné but in non-monochrome colors, patterns and larger pieces.

Message from Seller:

Kuo is inspired by organic forms found in nature, as well as the timeless motifs of the Chinese Han and Ming dynasties, often combining them with Deco and Nouveau influences. Called “the imperial craftsman of the 21st century,” Kuo reinterprets the past for the present. P: 323-931-1820 E: kkuo@robertkuo.com
