拍品描述
Southeast Asia, Thailand, Ban Chiang, ca. 1st millennium BCE. A pair of petite, bronze cast oval bells with ring-like heads, the bodies with shoulders that arc gracefully downward. The surfaces of both have aged in a lovely way, showing beautiful green patina. Sizes: 2.875" (7.3 cm) x 1.5" (3.8 cm) W and 2.75" (7 cm) H x 1.5" (3.8 cm) W.

These bells hail from the fabulous collection of ancient bronzes and weaponry from the late expert John Piscopo. During his lifetime, Mr. Piscopo amassed an impressive ensemble of works from ancient Greece, Rome, the Middle East, China, Southeast Asia, and many other lands. A knowledgeable connoisseur with a keen eye, Mr. Piscopo understood how to discern between reproductions and authentic pieces. Given the vast number of fakes on the market offered to unsuspecting collectors, Mr. Piscopo took special care to assure that his collection only included genuine pieces. What’s more, he stood on the frontlines of the fight to stop the illicit looting of historical sites.

Provenance: Ex-Estate of John Piscopo. Mr. Piscopo was one of the largest collectors of ancient weapons in the US with a collection that spanned all cultures, all ages.

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
