Bedeutender kleiner Arbeitstisch monogrammiert von David RoentgenRosenholz, Nuss, Rüster, Esche, Buchs, Ahorn und gefärbte Hölzer auf Eiche, Weichholz und Kirsche, grünes Leder mit geprägtem Goldrand (ersetzt), vergoldete Bronze und Messing. Ovaler Multifunktionstisch mit vier abschraubbaren verjüngten Vierkantbeinen auf Rollen. In der Front ein durch Druck öffnender, breiter Schub mit Schreibplatte, darunter zwei Innenschübe und ein Federmechanismus zum Öffnen der seitlichen Schwenkläden. Diese ausgestattet mit einem Fach über zwei Schüben. Die Beine betont durch dunkel furnierte Kanten, auf drei Seiten aufgelegte Lorbeerblattfestons an Schleifen. Über den Beinen Risaliten mit Triglyphen und gestuftem Abschluss. Um die Platte umlaufendes Messingband. Auf der Platte ein Bildfeld mit feiner figürlicher Marketerie, wie ein Medaillon trompe l‘oeil-artig in das Nussfurnier intarsiert. Auf den vier Seiten der Zarge Tierdarstellungen im Inselstil, gerahmt von breiten goldenen milleraies. Monogrammiert "DR" auf dem Halsband des Hundes vor der Hütte auf dem rechten Seitenschub. Unauffällige Schwundrisse in der Platte. H 72, B 65, T 46 cm.Neuwied, um 1775 - 80.In seiner Publikation von 1948 beschreibt Josef Maria Greber die 3,50 m hohen und 3,75 m breiten Paneele David Roentgens, die sich heute in der Sammlung des Museums für Angewandte Kunst Wien befinden, als „Die größten Intarsien der Welt“. David Roentgen führte fort, was sein Vater begann - die Möbel mit üppigen Bildern zu dekorieren, quasi als Erkennungszeichen seiner höfischen Kunst. Mit den detailreichen Wiedergaben der Vorlagen von Januarius Zick (1730 - 1797) gelang es David Roentgen einen unverwechselbaren, eigenen und neuen Stil zu etablieren. Seine Mitarbeiter realisierten die Zeichnungen des Koblenzer Künstlers, dem auch die Idee zu dieser Marketerie zugeschrieben wird. Der erste Schritt war dabei die Übersetzung der Zeichnung in ein Umrissraster für die unterschiedlichen Hölzer, nach dem der Intarsienschneider, wie z.B. Michael Rummer, arbeiten konnte. Bei diesem Tisch wird die sogenannte Werkszeichnung dem Graveur Elie Gervais (1721 - 1791) zugeschrieben. Wir kennen mehrere Ausführungen der Szene mit den würfelspielenden Kindern und dem beobachtenden Hund im Hintergrund, aber diese Marketerie in der Art eines trompe l‘oeil-Medaillons ist sicher die schönste. Die Tatsache, dass der kleine Hund auf der seitlichen Zarge eines der seltenen Monogramme David Roentgens am Halsband trägt, beweist, dezent formuliert, seinen Stolz auf dieses Möbel. Es gibt verschiedene Signaturen seiner Werkstatt, aber Marketeriesignaturen sind äußerst selten. Wir kennen noch einen zweiten ovalen Arbeitstisch mit der Intarsiensignatur "R". Er wird in dieselbe Zeit datiert und befindet sich in der Sammlung des Rijksmuseum Amsterdam (Inv. Nr. BK-16678).GutachtenDr. Dietrich Fabian vom 17. September 1988.ProvenienzSotheby's London am 6.

Schatulle von Abraham RoentgenMahagoni auf Mahagoni und Eiche, vergoldete Bronze, Messing, Eisenschloss. Oblonge Kastenform mit getrepptem Klappdeckel und oben befestigtem Bügelgriff. Vorstehende Basis auf vier geschweiften Zargenfüßen. Mittels einer Druckfeder zu öffnender, kartuschenförmiger, fein gravierter Schlossbeschlag, dahinter die Schlüsselführung. Innen Fächeraufteilung mit herausnehmbarem Deckel. Mit einem Druckknopf in der rechten Wandung zu öffnender Geheimschub in der rechten Basis. Feine Messingbänder um Seiten und Deckel. Der Deckel von innen mit marmoriertem Papier ausgekleidet. Mit umgelegten Bügelgriff H 19, B 26, T 16,5 cm.Neuwied, um 1750-1760.Die Produktion von Schatullen gehörte vermutlich schon seit der Gründung der Herrnhaager Werkstatt 1742 zu Abraham Roentgens täglicher Arbeit. Den Typus des elegant mit Edelhölzern furnierten Kästchens hatte er auf seinen Reisen in die Niederlande und nach London kennengelernt. Die Engländer pflegten den teuren, aus Indien und China importierten Tee in ähnlichen, innen verzinkten und abschließbaren Behältern aufzubewahren. Sie wurden caddy set genannt, ein Wort, das sich auf die chinesische Maßeinheit „kati“ bezog. Abraham Roentgen modifizierte Aussehen und Funktion des kolonialen Kästchens und erarbeitete sich damit gewissermaßen in seinem kleinsten Produkt schon ein sehr eigenes und auffälliges Profil. Millimetergroße, exakt aufeinander abgestimmte Furnierstückchen wurden auf einen Kirschholz- oder Eichenkorpus furniert. Messingbänder betonen die Umrisse, vergoldete Bronzefüße und raffinierte Einlagen steigern den Eindruck des Meisterwerks in Miniaturformat. Quasi zum Markenzeichen wurden die über einen inneren Knopfdruck herausspringenden flachen Seitenschübe in der Basis ebenso wie die kleinen quadratischen Türchen im Schlossbeschlag, die mittels eines Druckknopfs im Boden aufspringen und das Schloss freigeben, um den Schlüssel einzustecken. In Serien hergestellt, besaß jedes einzelne eine individuelle Ausstattung, eine Besonderheit, wie z.B. die kleine, fein gravierte Messingkartusche auf dem Deckel. Die Schatullen wurden in mehreren Größen angeboten und waren nicht ausschließlich für Tee gedacht, sondern für einen beliebigen wertvollen Inhalt. Heute sind noch ungefähr 100 dieser preziösen Schatullen erhalten, die meisten allerdings im Format kleiner Teekästchen. Bis zur Hamburger Lotterie 1769 war ihr Erwerb ausschließlich der hochadligen Clientèle Abraham Roentgens vorbehalten. Erst die ab Ende der 1760er Jahre erhobene Teesteuer und auch der Geschmackswandel zum Klassizismus ließen die Nachfrage nach den aufwändigen Schatullen sinken.LiteraturVgl.

Museales Bergkristallkreuz im originalen FutteralBergkristall, feuervergoldete Bronze. Fünfzehn tordiert geschliffene und gravierte Bergkristalle montiert mit gezahnten Ringen und in eine mit Akanthusrelief umlegte vergoldete Bronzebasis auf vier Volutenfüßen. Auf den Kreuzbalken stilisierte vegetabile Abschlüsse. H 97, B 50 cm.Italien oder Spanien, 17. Jh.Kreuze aus geschliffenem Bergkristall mit Metallmontierungen sind seit dem ausgehenden 13. Jahrhundert in vielen Kirchenbeständen belegt. Das transluzide klare Material entsprach in vielerlei Hinsicht dem gotischen Bedürfnis nach Transparenz und Minimalisierung von geschlossenen Flächen. Heute befinden sich viele dieser Kreuze, die ehemals entweder Prozessions-, Andachtskreuze oder auch als Reliquienbehälter gedient haben, in Museumsbesitz. Das im Typus am ehesten vergleichbare Exemplar steht heute in der Sammlung The Metropolitan Museum of Art, acc. no. 32.100.248, mit der Zuschreibung "möglicherweise spanisch", 17. Jahrhundert. Sofern wir keine Marken auf den Fassungen oder keine über Jahrhunderte belegte Provenienz haben, ist die genaue Zuordnung dieser Kreuze äußerst schwierig.
Tanzende SaloméElfenbein mit minimaler Farbfassung, zwei kleine facettierte rote Granate, vergoldete Bronze/Metall, roter Marmorsockel. Unsigniert. Ein Zeigefinger verloren. H 33 cm.Zugeschrieben an Ferdinand Preiss (1882 - 1943)Vermarktungsgenehmigung für den EU-Binnenmarkt liegt vor.Der aus einer Bildhauerfamilie stammende Johann Philipp Ferdinand Preiss wurde 1882 in der für ihre Elfenbeinmeister bekannten Stadt Erbach-Odenwald geboren. Schon während seiner Lehre bei Philipp Willmann (1846-1910) fertigte er erste Skulpturen im antikisierenden Stil. Seine Ausbildung setzte er an der Berliner Akademie der Bildenden Künste fort, arbeitete zeitweilig als Modelleur von Porzellanfiguren für die Firma Chidini in Mailand und trat 1905 in das Atelier von Carl Haebler in Baden-Baden ein. Mit seinem Freund Arthur Kassler gründet er 1907 das Atelier Preiss & Kassler, spezialisiert auf feinste Bildhauer- und Drechslerarbeiten. Die Resonanz auf die ersten Elfenbeinskulpturen war anfänglich verhalten. Der Erfolg stellte sich erst ein, als Preiss & Kassler nach 1910 gemeinsam mit Robert Kionsek von der Gießerei Gladenbeck, gemäß der Pariser Mode Chryselephantine-Figuren produzierten. Zu Kriegsbeginn 1914 beschäftigte das Unternehmen bereits sechs Elfenbeinarbeiter, darunter Louis Küchler und Ludwig Walther. Während und nach dem Krieg blieb das Atelier geschlossen; man musste sich aufgrund der unruhigen Zeiten der Nachkriegsjahre mit Rohstoffmangel und Absatzschwierigkeiten abfinden. Während Kassler den kaufmännischen Bereich des Ateliers leitete, konzentrierte sich Preiss auf die künstlerische Leitung und konnte in den 1920er Jahren die Produktion wieder vollständig aufnehmen.Die erfolgreichsten Modelle waren die aufwendig gearbeiteten Elfenbeinstatuetten im Stil des Art Déco, die zumeist mit Onyx- und Marmorsockeln kombiniert wurden. Sie stellten moderne, lebensnah gestaltete Frauen aus der Sport- und Theaterwelt des frühen 20. Jahrhunderts dar.Aufgrund der Verwendung von Dentalbohrern in der Fertigung, mit deren Hilfe Elfenbein präziser und schneller bearbeitet werden konnte, war es möglich in Serie zu produzieren. Die Kundschaft war international, vor allem aus England und den Vereinigten Staaten. Für Preiss & Kassler arbeiteten u.a. Rudolf Belling, Dorothea Charol, Walter Kassler, Richard W. Lange, Philip Lenz, Paul Philippe, Otto Poertzel und Ludwig Walter. 1929 übernahm die Firma die Berliner Gießerei Rosenthal & Maeder.Die Preiss & Kassler bestand bis 1943; in diesem Jahr starb Preiss im Alter von 61 Jahren an einem Gehirntumor. Kurz vor Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges 1945 brannten die Werkstatt und das Musterlager nach einem Bombenangriff vollständig aus.Dieses Objekt wurde unter Verwendung von Materialien hergestellt, für die beim Export in Ländern außerhalb der EU eine Genehmigung nach CITES erforderlich ist. Wir machen darauf aufmerksam, dass eine Genehmigung im Regelfall nicht erteilt wird.

The sword exhibits some paint wear around the handle.
