Lot 1152
1983 Honda Silver Wing with side car, 650cc. Registration number YNE 878Y. Frame number JH2RC1006 DM000567. Engine number RC10E-2000572. In 1981 Honda released the GL500 Silver Wing, which was a mid-sized touring bike based on the CX500 engine. The GL500 engine was similar to the CX500 engine, but used the more reliable transistorized ignition system, which meant the stator would contain only charging windings and thus would put out more power for operating the lights and other devices commonly added to touring motorcycles. The GL500 also used Honda's Pro-Link monoshock rear suspension and was available as either a naked bike or as an Interstate model with fairing. The Interstate included a large factory fairing, hard saddlebags, and a trunk. This made the Silver Wing look like a miniature Gold Wing GL1100 Insterstate. In 1983 the GL500 was upgraded to the GL650. Apart from the larger engine, the GL650 had a slightly different fairing mounts and front engine hanger mount than the GL500, and portions of the GL650 engine are painted black. The fuel economy of the GL650 was improved over that of the GL500 due to significantly taller gearing and the replacement of the CX/GL500's mechanical radiator fan with an electric fan. YNE comes with a sidecar mount and was first registered in the UK in 1994. In 2014 it was with Kenneth Ingham of Stockport our vendor buying it the following year. An MOT certificate from 2014 shows the mileage being 1,891 and the current reading is 2,122. Buyers should make their own investigation as to this being the genuine mileage of the machine. In need of some attention, YNE is a modern classic of the 1980?s. Sold with V5c, previous MOT and SORN notification.

A pair of bronze egretsBy Sano Takachika, Meiji era (1868-1912), late 19th/early 20th centuryEach egret realistically modelled with their heads lowered and eyes inlaid in gilt with black pupils, one shown holding a fish in its beak, 21cm (8¼in) high, the other 16.5cm (6½in) high, each bird signed on its belly Takachika within a rectangular reserve; each fixed on a flat silver later added stand. (2).Footnotes:This accomplished artist may have started his career in the regional metalworking center of Takaoka, but by 1894 he was a member of the Tokyo Chokokai (Tokyo Carvers' Association) and a set of figures of a heron and a crow by him was awarded a Second Class Diploma at the 27th Spring Exhibition of the Nihon Bijutsu Kyokai (Japan Art Association). The award was recorded in the third issue of Bijutsu gaho (Magazine of Art), an authoritative bilingual journal founded in the wake of Japan's great success at the World's Columbian Exhibition, which commented that the 'workmanship of the heron, from its ruffled plumage to the scared or angered expression of its eyes is faultless and that of the crow . . . is equally so.' The same lifelike qualities can be seen in the present pair of egrets, as well as in three works by Takachika in the Khalili Collection; another work by Takachika, a silver eagle and bronze snake on the trunk of a tree, was in the famous Japanese collection formed by the English connoisseur Michael Tomkinson and published in 1898.Reference:Bijutsu gaho (The Magazine of Art), 1/5 (October 25, 1894), 'Adjustable Iron Statue of Hawk', accessible at https://www.tobunken.go.jp/materials/ngbvol/001-05.Oliver Impey and Malcom Fairley, The Nasser D.

A pale green and russet 'boys washing the elephant' groupQianlong Crisply carved as a wrinkled elephant standing four-square in a whirling pool of water with finely-incised eddy currents, its long trunk playing with the water, two boys with brushes sweeping the elephant, the stone with russet patches, wood stand. 7.5cm (3in) long. (2).Footnotes:清乾隆 青白玉帶皮童子掃象擺件Provenance: S.Marchant and Sons, London (label)A distinguished English private collection來源：倫敦古董商S.Marchant and Sons（標簽）英國顯赫私人收藏The subject matter of boys tending to an elephant forms many multiple layers of meaning and auspiciousness. The phrase 'ride an elephant' (qi xiang 騎象), has a similar pronunciation as ji xiang (吉祥), meaning good fortune. Furthermore, boys cleaning or 'washing the elephant' (sao xiang 掃象), forms a rebus for 'sweeping away the phenomena of the outside world', which are thought to be mere illusions. The pun is based on the fact that the pronunciation of 'elephant' and 'image' is the same in Chinese (xiang 象). Compare with a related carving of an elephant being groomed by two boys, illustrated in the Compendium of Collections in the Palace Museum: Jade, Beijing, 2011, no.136.See also a related white jade carving of an elephant and boys, 18th century, which was sold at Sotheby's London, 10 May 2017, lot 4.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: YY Subject to CITES regulations when exporting items outside of the EU, see clause 13.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
