A GROUP OF TWO 18K GOLD NOSE RINGS, AN 18K GOLD AMULET, AND TWO INLAID PENDANTS, 20TH CENTURY AND EARLIER
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

India. Comprising a nose ring (nath) from Rajasthan, crafted from fine gold wire, decorated with concentric circles of pearls and glass beads arranged in floral patterns; a second filigree nose ring (bulak) from Odisha made of circular gold wirework with a pierced central opening, encircled by multiple concentric bands, and flanked by two inlaid rubies at the clasp; a North Indian round gold pendant intricately designed with openwork and applied decorations, including floral motifs and beaded elements; and two South Indian crescent-shaped pendants, made of gold and inlaid with red, green, and transparent gemstones, with the lower edge fringed by small pearls, each suspended from delicate loops. (5)

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.
Condition: Very good condition with minor wear and manufacturing irregularities. Surface abrasion, a few nicks and light scratches.
