Topic: What type of finish

I am new to the finishing community and saw this gorgeous piece of art in a shop and wanted to duplicate its finish for a different project.  Any help on how the artist achieved that deep blue and yellow?  Thanks.

Is that a painted piece?

I don't believe so, looking at it up close it appeared to be a treatment to the metal itself.

My problem is i don't know where to begin as i do not know the method of finishing the artist used to achieve this color.

It is very difficult to see from the photo but I was wondering if it could be some lacquer or enamel.  It looks like the cloisonne art famous in Japan.
