A RARE PAIR OF LARGE BONE TRUMPETS DEPICTING YOGINS AND DANCING DAKINIS, 18TH-19TH CENTURY OR EARLIER
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

Tibet. Each finely carved in two segments, the upper half with yogins, one female dancing atop a prostate figure holding a kapala and kartika and the other male seated on a tiger-skin under a canopy, surrounded by animals, with a band of scrolling tendrils and beaded rims around the center, the lower section with dancing dakinis, flowerheads, and yantras.

Provenance: The Kienzle Family Collection, Stuttgart, Germany. Acquired between 1950 and 1985 by siblings Else (1912-2006), Reinhold (1917-2008), and Dr. Horst Kienzle (1924-2019), during their extensive travels in Asia. Subsequently inherited by Dr. Horst Kienzle and bequeathed to the Museum für Asiatische Kunst, Radevormwald, Germany. Released through museum deaccession in 2024. The Kienzle siblings were avid travelers and passionate collectors of Asian and Islamic art. During their travels, the Kienzle’s sought out and explored temples, monasteries, and markets, always trying to find the best pieces wherever they went, investing large sums of money and forging lasting relationships to ensure they could acquire them. Their fervor and success in this pursuit is not only demonstrated by their collection but further recorded in correspondences between Horst Kienzle and several noted dignitaries, businesses and individuals in Nepal and Ladakh. Their collection had gained renown by the 1970s, but the Kienzle’s stopped acquiring new pieces around 1985. Almost thirty years later, the collection was moved to the Museum für Asiatische Kunst, Radevormwald, opened by Peter Hardt in 2014. Before his death in 2019, Horst Kienzle bequeathed his entire property to Peter Hardt and legally adopted him as his son, who has been using the name Peter Kienzle-Hardt ever since.
Condition: Good condition with wear, traces of use, and natural imperfections including expected age cracks. Few small losses, one trumpet inset with a rectangular bone plaque, probably inherent to the manufacture, and the other trumpet with a horizontal crack and associated minuscule losses.

Weight: 1.9 kg and 2.1 kg
Dimensions: Length 64.9 cm and 64.8 cm

With a modern wood and metal stand. (3)
