Original Message: Japanese 1937 occupation of China

Chinese accounts of both Boshan and the Beijing cloisonne workshops are pretty consistent about the devastation, no doubt aggravated by World War II and the Chinese civil war. I wonder if the Japanese businesses that had been investing and trying to develop industries such as Boshan since the early 1900s were adversely affected by the wreckage and disruption their military caused? Or were they collaborators?
The brass box finial I posted about earlier today seems to indicate that these Boshan millefiori beads were being produced before the 1920s (at which time apparently U.S. tariff amendments than required the words "Made in" to precede the country of origin mark on imported items.
