Dear Chris, I was tired of cloisonné by the time the tiny ones came out. So I did not handle them. I started with the larger ones with dragons, fish and birds; these were available for about six months. And for me, cloisonné sold well for about a year. Then -as the Chinese are prone to do- the market became flooded with floral pattern cloisonné beads. I had long stopped handling them by the time the American wholesale price dropped from five dollars to fifty cents each. Collecting contemporary cloisonné quickly became redundant.
