A GOLD- AND SILVER-INLAID BRONZE BELT HOOK, WARRING STATES PERIOD

China, 5th-3rd century BC. The arched belt hook elaborately inlaid with silver wire and gold sheet, the stylized design cast with two dragons facing each other at the center, their coiling bodies with raised sections highlighted by the gold and silver inlays. The hook in the form of a dragon head.

Provenance: From the private collection of Alan and Simone Hartman, New York. The reverse with an old label, ‘A & S Hartman Collection: CB 54 HUAI.’ Alan Hartman (1930-2023) was an influential American art dealer, who took over his parents’ antique business in Manhattan and established the legendary Rare Art Gallery on Madison Avenue, with further locations in Dallas and Palm Beach. His wife Simone (née Horowitz) already served as assistant manager of the New York gallery before the couple married in 1975, and together they built a renowned collection for over half a century and became noted art patrons, enriching the collections of important museums including the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (which opened the Alan and Simone Hartman Galleries in 2013) as well as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Brooklyn Museum in New York.
Condition: Very good condition, commensurate with age, with wear. Signs of weathering and erosion, encrustations, small nicks, and minor losses to the inlays. The bronze is covered in a rich, naturally grown patina with bright malachite and cuprite encrustations.
