Description

A LARGE CEREMONIAL VESSEL IN THE FORM OF A CAPARISONED ELEPHANT, THAILAND, CIRCA 1400-2100 YEARS OLD

Scientific Analysis Report: A thermoluminescence analysis report issued by Oxford Authentication on 11 July 2024, based on sample number N124f91, sets the firing date of one sample, taken from the rear of the body, between 1400 and 2100 years ago, consistent with the dating above. Two other samples, taken from areas of restoration, were fired less than hundred years ago. A copy of the report accompanies this lot.

Well modeled as an elephant with massive rotund body standing foursquare on stout feet, the animal finely detailed with long curved tusks and large eyes with raised round pupils as well as neatly incised caparison decorated with sinuous snakes, its back surmounted by the flared mouth of the vessel.

Provenance: From a Spanish private estate. One leg with an old label, ‘M3’.
Condition: Good condition, commensurate with age. Old wear, firing flaws, signs of weathering, encrustations, nicks, scratches, losses, flaking. Some restoration work, as generally expected from ancient excavations with an age of 2000 years and more. Three drilled holes from sample-taking.

Weight: 2,839 g
Dimensions: Height 20.8 cm

Literature comparison:
Compare a related ceremonial vessel in the form of a water buffalo, Thailand, 10th-3rd century, in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, accession number 2000.204.1.
