Cloisonné enamel work — a technique of fusing colored enamel into wire-edged compartments on metal — has roots stretching back centuries, and figural cloisonné brooches turn up regularly in estate jewelry collections more than they turn up in stores. This bird-and-fish pin carries that same well-loved, detailed quality, the kind of piece you only fully appreciate up close.
