A GROUP OF NINE HARDSTONE BEADS, C. 200-1000 AD

Six coming from the Pyu city-states, ancient Myanmar. One from ancient Bactria, one from Tibet, and one probably from China. The Tibetan dzi bead is of a more recent date than the others. Comprising an agate talisman in the form of a crouching tiger; five small talismans carved as elephants standing foursquare, one of turquoise glass, one of banded gray agate, and three of gray and orange agate; a biconical and faceted carnelian bead; a long hardstone cylindrical bead; and an etched carnelian bead of cylindrical form. Each drilled for suspension. (9)

Provenance
: Collection of Paolo Bertuzzi. Paolo Bertuzzi (1943-2022) was a fashion stylist from Bologna, Italy. He was the son of Enrichetta Bertuzzi, founder of Hettabretz, a noted Italian fashion company with customers such as the Rothschild family, Audrey Hepburn, and Elizabeth Taylor. Paolo Bertuzzi later took over his mother’s business and designed exclusive pieces, some of which were exhibited in the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum in New York, USA. He was also an avid collector of antiques for more than 60 years. His collection includes both archaic and contemporary art, and he edited two important books about Asian art, Goa Made - An Archaeological Discovery, about a large-scale archaeological project carried out with the Italian and Indonesian governments, and Majapahit, Masterpieces from a Forgotten Kingdom.
