Lovely set of Cloisonne Vases with bird and floral details!

The interior metal is not enameled. Blue enamel does covers the base of each piece. There are no labels or maker's marks present.
Dimensions:

1 3/16" across the base
Weight-

Condition:
Both vases are in very good condition with very little wear to the exterior. There are two small spots that look to be factory defects on one vase and one spot on the other vase where small sections of enamel are slightly lower than the surrounding surface. Upon close examination, these could either be enamel chips with smooth edges, or spots that incurred a loss of enamel before the pieces were fired. The interior metal has a discolored finish from the lower neck down in both vases.
This set would look wonderful on a mantle, bookshelf, table, dresser, or as an addition to a cloisonne collection!
