Cloisonne



While in China, because we were with a guide (we weren't part of a tour, the four of us just had a guide in each city) we ended up being roped into going to all these 'factories' to see how things are made and then, ostensibly, were expected to buy things. One place was a Cloisonne Factory. And yes, I bought a bracelet.

I loved all the pots of powder (of course I found out later the paint powder is totally toxic and people that paint cloisonne die of cancer really young). Anyway. Overall the light in China was awesome and overcast, it made all the colors pop.




This was the cash register at the cloisonne place:
