Description

A LARGE SILVERED BRASS TOE RING, SOUTH INDIA, 19TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

Madhya Pradesh. Finely cast, the large, oval and lobed bezel in a rosette-like shape, centered by a raised boss encircled with an incised and beaded band. The surface is richly detailed with additional coiled patterns, dots, and fine incised decoration. To the reverse, a characteristic horizontal bar extends from the ring.

Provenance: Galerie Hardt (established in 1976), Radevormwald, Germany, before 2020. Acquired by the gallery’s founder Peter Hardt (b. 1946) during his extensive travels in Asia, the first of which occurred during a formative world tour in 1973. Throughout his storied career, Peter Kienzle-Hardt organized countless exhibitions and participated in major international art fairs. He made many important contacts during this time and eventually met the Kienzle siblings, who shared his passion for Asian art and culture. A strong bond and deep friendship developed, ultimately leading to the creation of the Museum für Asiatische Kunst decades later in 2014. While the museum’s permanent exhibition predominantly comprised pieces from the Kienzle Family Collection, Peter Kienzle-Hardt supplemented it with objects from his own collection. Before his death in 2019, Horst Kienzle bequeathed his entire property to Peter and legally adopted him as his son, who has been using the name Peter Kienzle-Hardt ever since.
Labels: Galerie Hardt, inscribed ‘Zehenring eines Elefantentreibers, Messing versilbert, Indien 18. Jh.’, and priced at EUR 220.
