A LARGE LACQUERED WOOD STORAGE CHEST, 17TH-18TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

Tibet. The large chest with a hinged lid, the front is painted in gilt with a frontal facing, five-clawed dragon in a lobed cartouche, its body is stippled, and framed by dense scrolling vines bearing lotus blossoms, all above a red lacquered ground. The sides are painted in green and red, and the top is coated in fabric. The edges are fastened with leaf-form metal staples.

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 minor wear, traces of use, small losses, nicks, natural age cracks, little flaking to the lacquer, few tears to the fabric, the interior of the cover with remnants of adhesive, some of the metal mounts slightly loose. Some of the lacquer and the gilt may have been renewed over time.
