16th-Century Indo-Portuguese Colonial Mother-of-pearl Gujarat Casket
Located in Amsterdam, NL
An exceptional Indo-Portuguese colonial mother-of-pearl veneered casket with silver mounts
India, Gujarat, 2nd half of the 16th century, the silver mounts Goa or probably Lisbon
Measures: H. 16 x W. 24.6 x D. 16.1 cm
An exceptional Gujarati casket with a rectangular box and truncated pyramidal lid (with slopes on each side and a flat top) made from exotic wood, probably teak (Tectona grandis), covered with a mother-of-pearl mosaic. The tesserae, cut from the shell of the green turban sea snail (Turbo marmoratus, a marine gastropod) in the shape of fish scales, are pinned to the wooden structure with silver ball-headed nails. The casket is set on bracket feet on the corners. The masterfully engraved decoration of the silver mounts follows the most refined and erudite Mannerist repertoire of rinceaux and ferroneries dating from the mid-16th century. The high quality and refinement of the silver mounts and, likewise, the silver nails that replaced the original brass pins used to hold the mother-of-pearl tesserae in place indicate the work of a silversmith probably working in Lisbon in the second half of the 16th century.
The Indian origin of this production, namely from Cambay (Khambhat) and Surat in the present state of Gujarat in north India, is, as for the last three decades, consensual and fully demonstrated, not only by documentary and literary evidence - such as descriptions, travelogues and contemporary archival documentation - but also by the survival in situ of 16th-century wooden structures covered in mother-of-pearl tesserae. A fine example is a canopy decorating the tomb (dargah) of the Sufi saint, Sheik Salim Chisti (1478-1572) in Fatehpur Sikri in Agra district in the state of Uttar Pradesh, north India. This is an artistic production, geometric in character and Islamic in nature, where usually the mother-of-pearl tesserae form complex designs of fish scales or, similar to the dishes also made using the same technique, with the thin brass sheets and pins, stylized lotus flowers. The truncated pyramidal shape corresponds, like their contemporary tortoiseshell counterparts also made in Gujarat, to a piece of furniture used in the Indian subcontinent within the Islamic world prior to the arrival of the first Portuguese. This shape, in fact, is very old and peculiar to East-Asian caskets, chests or boxes used to contain and protect Buddhist texts, the sutras.
A similar chest is the famous and large reliquary chest from Lisbon cathedral that once contained the relics of the city's patron saint, Saint Vincent. Both match in shape, having the same kind of socle or pedestal and bracket feet, and in their engraved silver mountings, featuring the same type of refined, erudite decoration. Their differences lie in the silver borders that frame the entire length of the edges of the chest (both the box and the lid), pinned with silver nails, and on the lock plate, shaped like a coat of arms in the Lisbon example. Given the exceptional dimensions of the reliquary casket...

18th century Antique wooden Indian temple panel from India
Located in DEVENTER, NL
Step into the sacred legacy of Indian temple artistry with this Antique wooden Indian temple panel, a rare 18th-century relic originating from a historic Temple Chariot (Rath) in India. Measuring 51.3 cm high, 25.1 cm wide, and 13.4 cm deep, this intricately carved wooden panel once adorned a ceremonial chariot used in grand religious processions, embodying the spiritual fervor and architectural grandeur of Hindu traditions. Crafted by skilled artisans, the panel showcases elaborate depictions of deities, mythological scenes, or floral motifs, symbols of divine protection and cosmic order central to temple rituals. Weighing 6.74 kgs, its robust yet finely detailed construction reflects the durability required for chariots that traversed festival routes, carrying sacred idols amid vibrant celebrations. The rich patina and aged wood grain bear witness to centuries of devotion, while the panel’s provenance—documented in the last two photos of its original chariot—adds unparalleled historical authenticity.
Created during an era of flourishing temple art under royal patronage, this piece exemplifies the fusion of devotional craftsmanship and functional sacred art, offering a tangible link to India’s spiritual and cultural heritage. Ideal for collectors of Asian religious artifacts, historians, or interior design connoisseurs, this 18th-century temple panel transcends mere decoration, serving as a narrative artifact of India’s temple...

19th Century English Satinwood Carlton House Desk Attributed to Gillows
Located in Dublin, IE
An exceptional 19th century satinwood Carlton House desk attributed to Gillows of Lancaster, the curved superstructure with pierced brass gallery, fitted with two banks of three drawers to the centre, flanked by cupboard doors, the left & right with a document slot above, the reverse inlaid with oval panels, with a gilt tooled burgundy leather writing surface, above three frieze drawers on turned gadrooned and fluted tapering legs with brass caps.
Circa 1880
Dimensions:
H: 41 1/4 in / 104.8 cm
W: 61 in / 154.9 cm
D: 32 1/2 in / 82.5 cm
Footnote:
This particular design of desk owes its name to the one supplied to the Prince of Wales for Carlton House by the court cabinet maker John Kerr in 1790. Its design was later published by George Hepplewhite in 1792 and in 1793 by Thomas Shearer. The publication in Sheraton’s The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Drawing-Book of several plates illustrating the interiors of Prince George’s recently built palace raised the interest for its interior decoration.
Three years later, the name Carlton House desk appears for the first time in the Estimate Sketch Book of Gillow of London and Lancaster. A Gillow’s sketch from 1798 differs slightly from Hepplewhite’s and it is closer in design to the present lot, most noticeably displaying the turned and fluted legs and the pierced brass gallery. The design of this desk similar to known Gillow’s stamped models, the type of construction and the typical square brass handles strengthen an attribution to this firm.
