Lot 661
A Very Early Lacquered Bronze Buddha, possibly 10th-12th Century. This is an extremely fragile object which is commensurate with its potential age (10th-12th Century). There are traces of gilding to the body and a red band around the base. The hair particularly on the back (see pictures) clearly show the use of ground lapis lazuli which has been painted into the hair.The inside of the back of the buddha is clearly visible as the back has been open and exposed, probably to remove some valuable writing/object that had been stored inside. The damage is not visible from the front. There are traces of a material that has been applied to the interior body of the Buddha - another indication of distinct age.This Buddha is seated in the Bhumisparsha Mudra with the right hand extended towards (touching) the ground and with a very serene face. This is a sign symbolising The Buddha's enlightenment under the bodhi tree, when he summoned the earth goddess, Sthavara, to bear witness to his attainment of enlightenment. The right hand, placed upon the right knee in earth-pressing mudra, and complemented by the left hand - which is held flat in the lapin the dhyana mudra of meditation, symbolises the union of the method and wisdom, smasara and nirvana, and also the realisations of the conventional and ultimate truths. It is in this posture that Shakyamuni overcame the instructions of mara while meditating on Truth.Provenance: This Buddha was gifted to a family who were based in Peking (now Beijing) up until 1914. On their departure to return to the United Kingdom (via the Trans-Siberian route) one of their servants, who had been long serving and loyal to this family presented them with this Buddha which may have been a family heirloom.

JOSEF HOFFMANN (Brtnice, Czech Republic, 1870 - Vienna, 1956).Dining table, ca. 1900.Walnut wood and brass.Measurements: 80 x 130 x 110 x 110 cm (closed); 80 x 250 x 110 cm (with two extensions).Art Deco style table with an emphatic, monolithic structure, based on the expressiveness of regular geometric volumes and contrasting planes and materials. It has an extendable tabletop, almost square when folded, with a profile highlighted by a perpendicular veneered profile, evoking the forms of a frame and panel structure, in a nod to tradition. It stands on four legs in the form of octagonal, faceted and polished pillars, with an equally prismatic, undecorated base and capital. These legs are placed on a sloping pedestal with a wooden central surface and sides covered in hammered bronze, which was widely used between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century as a reminder of the old metal forging techniques. At the corners, this pedestal has openwork reinforcements with curved cut-outs.
