Ca. 50-100 AD.A beautiful bronze oil lamp with a central filling hole in the discus, a long nozzle and a low concave foot with concentric circles. During the Roman Empire, it became commonplace to use lamps in funeral ceremonies and for public purposes.

Common decorative themes depicted on the discus were entertainment scenes (such as gladiators in combat), common myths, and animals. For a comparison piece, see item number 18, p. 18 in Mele, N. M.

Ca. 400-350 BC.A bronze helmet, a variant of the Negau type, a regional Italian style with a characteristically conical shape. The tall, capped form resolves in a concave neck with a pronounced brim. It once would have been decorated with attachments and feathers, as similar known examples demonstrate. Their distinctive shape represented the ferocity and might of the Etruscan army. Memories of these soldiers lived on for centuries after the Etruscan metalsmiths stopped producing them, as evidenced by an eastern Hungarian Celtic tetradrachm (ca. 2nd century BCE) that depicts a horseman wearing one of these helmets and holding a torc, a symbol of power. Cf. A pilos helmet in Berlin, illustrated in Antikenmuseum Berlin (Berlin, 1988), no. 1 on pp. 80-81. The item has undergone X-ray fluorescence analysis to confirm the metallurgical content suggesting its ancient origin and lack of modern trace elements.

The vessel is covered witha smooth red-green patina (cuprite/malachite encrustation). Cf. Zhongguo qingtongqui quanji, vol.4, Beijing, 1998, pls156 and 157; Robert W. Bagley, Shang Ritual Bronzes in the Arthur M. Sackler Collections, Washington DC., 1987, pl.63. This piece has undergone X-Ray Fluorescence analysis by an independent Belgian Laboratory.

Ca. 1300–1200 BC.A beautiful bronze jia tripod vessel comprising a flaring rim, inward sloping neck, flaring shoulder and flat bottom supported by three wedge-shaped legs. A single strap handle is attached to one side of the vessel and two posts with conical casts rise from the rim. A decorative frieze runs around the neck of the vessel, just above the shoulder, and depicts stylised taotie masks. The taotie are mythological creatures commonly appearing in ancient Chinese art, where they are commonly associated with the Four Evils of the World, a motif fitting for a vessel that would have been used for holding food on ritual or ceremonial occasions. Jia with this form and decoration are typical of the Anyang period (ca. 1300-1030 BC) and a comparable example can be seen in Shang Ritual Bronzes in the National Palace Museum Collection, Taipei, 1998, pp. 152-7, no. 9. A similar, less well-preserved object was recently sold at Christie's, see https://www.christies.com/lotfinder/lot/a-bronze-ritual-tripod-wine-vessel-jia-6276463-details.aspx?from=salesummery&intobjectid=6276463.

Ca. 475-221 BC.A bronze dagger with a leaf-shaped, lentoid-section blade. The guard comprises an openwork figure-of-eight motif, connecting a rectangular handle; a figure-of-eight motif makes up the pommel as well. These features, which are covered in scale-like details, may be intended to recall the nostrils or wings of a dragon. The handle is covered with intricate incised motifs. The Warring States Period was an era of Chinese history characterised by the extensive and ongoing conflict between a multitude of statelets and kingdoms which ultimately culminated in the Qin state's victory and the first unification of China into a single empire.

Ca. 202BC-220AD. A rare pottery goose with bronze legs. The bird is standing on its stylised, well-defined bronze legs which support a globular body and elegantly slender neck terminating in a yellow-coloured head with a beak and open, attentive eyes. The body is well formed with realistic details. Geese were a major motif in Han dynasty era poetry and were typically distinguished between two types of geese, the domestic goose, and the wild goose. The Han Dynasty, which ruled between 202 BC-220 AD, brought great prosperity and stability to China, reigning over a golden age of classical Chinese civilization during which China saw major advances including the widespread development of a monetary economy and the invention of paper, as well as much progress in the decorative arts. This piece has been precisely dated by means of a Thermo Luminescence analysis carried out by Ralf Kotalla, an independent German Laboratory. The samples collected date the piece to the period reflected in its style, whilst also showing no modern trace elements. The TL certificate with its full report will accompany this lot.

Ca. 202BC-220AD. An outstanding earthenware rooster with many traces of the original polychromy. This colourful bird stands on well-defined bronze legs. Rendered in an alert, standing pose with an erect neck, the bird looks straight ahead with delineated wings folded to its abdomen with stylized feathers and presents an overall bold silhouette. This rooster figurine is a mingqi, 'spirit good' belonging to the burial rituals in the Chinese Han Dynasty. High-ranking persons were buried with various everyday objects; it was believed that life after death was a continuation of the present life, and therefore the deceased was provided with all the objects necessary to continue living after death. Thus, terracotta animals, such as these roosters and camels, horses, and cattle were given, as well as food, clothing, and valuables. The tombs were designed architecturally so that, together with the objects, they provided both a comfortable final resting place as well as a safe journey for the deceased into the afterlife. Ancestor worship was very important, for the welfare of the deceased and for the welfare of the entire family. This piece has been precisely dated by means of a Thermo Luminescence analysis carried out by Ralf Kotalla, an independent German Laboratory. The samples collected date the piece to the period reflected in its style, whilst also showing no modern trace elements. The TL certificate with its full report will accompany this lot.

Ca. 3000-2000 BC.A shallow terracotta bowl in a deep amber colour standing on a ring foot. The interior is decorated with concentric panels featuring geometric motifs. The Indus civilization, also called the Harappan civilization, is the earliest known urban culture of the Indian subcontinent and was an important Bronze Age culture that arose around ca. 3300 BC and lasted until ca. 1300 BC. It extended from modern-day northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and northwest India. The nuclear dates of the civilization appear to be about 2500-1700 BC, though the southern sites may have lasted later into the 2nd millennium BC. Its heyday, to which this kind of ceramic vessel belongs, was in the 3rd millennium BC. Large numbers of ceramic vessels decorated with black slip have been found among the sophisticated urban settlements of South Asia's protohistoric Indus Valley civilization.
