This review is from: Oriental Cloisonne and Other Enamels: A Guide to Collecting and Repairing (Hardcover)

This book is a good basic reference source, as well as a good intro for beginning collectors. It discusses the various types of cloisonne, techniques, and symbols, plus has a wide variety of illustrations. It even gives instructions for repairing damaged pieces. There is also a price list, tho that changes so is not up to date. Highly recommended.
