http://theescapeplace.com/ - Cloisonné is an art. Artisans from all over the world have employed this technique of designing on metal vessels with colored-glass paste. The designs are put within enclosures formed from copper or bronze wires, which have been wrought into the desired pattern. Rightfully known as cloisons (French for "partitions"), the artisan usually solders or pastes the enclosures onto the body of the metal vessel.
