A BRONZE OIL LAMP (CHIRAGHDAN), INDIA, 18TH / 19th CENTURY.

The large and impressive lamp is formed of three parts that are joined using screw threads. It seems a permanent arrangement, as I cannot shift them now. The tapering bosses on the column are very striking. Heavy!

AN INDIAN BLACK STEATITE FLASK, 18TH CENTURY.

The flask (surahi) is expertly turned on a lathe from a single piece of black steatite, a soft stone related to soapstone. It is beautifully made and very light, displaying the remarkable hollowing performed by the artisan. It relates directly to bronze and brass versions from the 18th century. With this flask is a turned alabaster bowl, also elegantly made, that has a c... Click for details

TWO BRONZE/BRASS LOTA, INDIA, 19TH CENTURY OR EARLIER.

These lota are so similar in size and shape that one could be forgiven for calling them a pair. They differ only in the placement and thickness of their bands. I have owned them for more years than I care to remember and have always admired their elegant simplicity. They are cast, quite heavy; and impossible to date accurately as the design probably dates b... Click for details

A BIRD FORM OIL LAMP, INDIA, 18TH CENTURY.

The bird, possibly a parakeet, forms the oil reservoir of a small suspended oil lamp. Similar birds are illustrated in Mark Zebrowski’s “Gold, Silver and Bronze from Mughal India”, some dating as early as the 16th century. This seems to be a very old example also and so a possible dating to 17th to 18th century seems cautious but fair. ... Click for details

A FINE SILVER EWER, INDIA OR INDO PERSIAN, 19TH CENTURY

This superbly crafted silver jug was possibly used for serving tea or coffee. It seems to be similar to the work produced in northern India. Although unmarked it appears to be made from good quality silver and will polish well, I have left it unpolished so as to show the detailed work better. ... Click for details
