Original Message:   The voice of Zhang Rong, Palace Museum curator
Late in the Qing dynasty and during the Republic, the craft of enamel, like the last rays of a setting sun, again reached a minor peak. The finest surviving cloisonne objects from this period exhibit marks of official and private organizations and workshops ... But owing to the lack of documents, very little is known abut these enameling workshops during this period.

So maybe that PhD candidate might just have to inspect aggregations of representative works and go from there.
