Description

A FINE GROUP OF A SILVER NECKLACE, BRACELET, AND AMULET PENDANT WITH A MINIATURE PAINTING OF GANESHA, TIBET AND INDIA, 19TH AND 20TH CENTURY
This lot is a museum deaccession and is therefore offered without reserve

Comprising a Tibetan necklace composed of forty-five small disks incised with shou characters and set with six loops, each element joined by further loops, and suspending a large cloud-shaped pendant inlaid with four turquoises surrounded by scrolling foliage in filigree; a small Indian bangle for a child, made from tightly twisted silver with a diamond-shaped clasp at the top; and a Rajasthani rectangular amulet with an openwork frame encasing a hand-painted miniature of Ganesha, with a row of bells suspended along the lower edge, a foliate design at the back, and two diamond-shaped loops on top. (3)

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, printed ‘Anh?nger Silber Indien 19. Jh.‘, priced at EUR 1,750 (the Rajasthani pendant).
Condition: Good condition with minor wear, traces of use, manufacturing irregularities, expected tarnish, light warping, few minuscule nicks, remnants of pigments and adhesive.

Weight: 248 g (total)
Dimensions: Height 6.5-35 cm

Artists across Rajasthan produced miniature paintings from the 18th to the early 20th centuries for pilgrims to temples. Many such paintings were incorporated into silver jewelry to provide adherents with a protective talisman that they could wear.
