Engraved Copper Alloy Bucket - LO.925, Origin: Central Asia, Circa: 12 th Century AD to 13 th Century AD, Collection: Islamic Art, Style: Khorasan, Medium: Quarternary, Bronze, In the 9th century, hordes of nomadic Turkic horseman living on the outskirts of the Muslim world began to migrate westward into the heart of Central Asia. By the 10 century, a branch known as the House of Seljuk had broken off from the Oghuz confederation of Turkomen tribesmen, arrived into mainland Persia, and settled in the province of Khurasan. Overtime, the Seljuks converted to Islam and began to adopt the Persian language and culture. In the 11th century, the Seljuks set up an independent state under their leader Tugrul Bey with its capital in Isfahan, initially under the auspices of the Abbasid Caliph in Baghdad. The arts thrived during the Seljuk period as the Turkic rulers patronized Persian culture, arts, and literature.   « Less

Magnificently carved Dieppe ivory napkin ring! A profusion of fruits and flowers and intricately detailed leaves in absolutely pristine condition cover the entire surface of the ring. This cornucopia is banded at the edges and bears a central cartouche in shield shape. The shield is monogrammed A D (even I can make out this monogram!) The shield is nicely textured as a backdrop for the monogram. Dieppe, a port city in France, was the entry point for many ivories, spices and exotic items from the Orient and Africa from the 1500-1800's. As such, it became a center for fine and creative ivory sculpting; many of the finest pieces are on display in the Dieppe Museum. It only gets harder to find good quality Dieppe ivory sculpted items in excellent condition, as is this napkin holder.   « Less
