    Vintage Cloisonne Enamel & Brass Urn/Vase w/ Lid~Signed China~VERY COLORFUL!
    This cloisonne urn was an estate find in southern Arizona. It came out of an old historical building in Tucson, most recently called the Copper Bell B & B, which was established in 2006. The owners of the bed and breakfast moved here from Germany and brought many belongings from Germany with them. While learning about this historical building, I found that the owner was Gertrude Eich. She lived from 1936-2016. Which helps to date this urn to no earlier than the late-20th century, but likely older. (The building was originally built in 1910 and served as a sanitarium and is on the National Registry of Historic Places. Very interesting history!)

    Traditional blue interior enamel glaze.
    Lots of beautiful tones of red, pink, yellow, green and blue.

    FYI - My husband and I recently retired from education with 40+ years of service combined. We are down-sizing and going through storage and also visiting local estate sales as we try to supplement our pension. We are having lots of fun finding treasures like these!
