Bikō Hayashi (Akita, 1937) Kin-Gin-Dō Mokume-gane vase 'Hyotan', 2024 Fine gold, fine silver, copper H 18 cm Signed by the artist below and on the accompanying tomobako (wooden box) Provenance: the artist's personal collection Exhibition: featured in April 2026 at the solo exhibition 'Bikō Hayashi-Gold, Silver, and Copper Mokume-gane: Cultural Property Exhibition' in Akita Japanese metal artist Bikō Hayashi is one of the foremost representatives of contemporary Japanese metalwork. Combining the centuries-old tradition of kōgei with a modern sculptural language, he is renowned for his mastery of tankin, the art of shaping metal through hammering. A defining achievement of his career is the rediscovery of Kin-Gin-Dō Mokume-gane (gold, silver and copper wood-grain metal), a highly complex technique dating back to the early Edo period. Once used to decorate samurai swords and armour, this craft was almost entirely lost with the decline of the samurai class. After more than four decades of research, Hayashi succeeded in reconstructing its traditional methods and metal compositions, bringing this remarkable art form back to life and adapting it for contemporary sculptures and vessels. In recognition of his contribution, he was designated a custodian of intangible cultural heritage by Akita Prefecture. The Hyōtan, or bottle gourd, is a traditional Japanese symbol associated with fertility, prosperity, longevity and protection. Its distinctive shape represents the preservation of happiness and positive energy.

Cesare Lapini (Florence, 1848-after 1890) La Sorpresa (Surprise) White Carrara marble H 128 x W 36 x D 48 cm Signed 'C. LAPINI' Provenance: private collection, Belgium Literature (related to the model): Torino e l’Esposizione italiana del 1884, Cronaca Illustrata, Part IV, Turin, Roux e Favale and Fratelli Treves, 1884, p. 45, model illustrated; Angelo De Gubernatis, Dizionario degli artisti italiani viventi, pittori, scultori e architetti, Florence, 1889, p. 580, model mentioned Exhibition: model presented in Turin at the Esposizione Generale Italiana, 1884 In La Sorpresa, Cesare Lapini captures the moment when a young woman, surprised in her intimacy, delicately gathers the folds of her nightdress. Her subtle smile and lowered gaze convey a delicate ambiguity between modesty and coquetry. When presented in Turin in 1884, the model was associated with the myth of Diana surprised bathing by Actaeon. The finely rendered lace, the fluidity of the drapery and the delicate treatment of the figure’s flesh tones demonstrate the sculptor’s virtuosity and the refinement of the Florentine school in the late 19th century.

The brothers, sons of the celebrated Parisian menuisier Georges Jacob (1739–1814), took over their father's workshop in 1796 and produced furniture of marked neoclassical character, employing mahogany and richly chased gilt-bronze mounts in response to the developing Directoire and Consular taste.

Epoque Fine Jewels
Van Cleef & Arpels Art Deco bracelet, circa 1925 Platinum and diamonds Total diamond weight: approx. 30 ct Signed Van Cleef & Arpels and numbered The rhythmic, continuous wave motif creates a strong sense of movement and symmetry, characteristic of the refined geometric elegance of the Art Deco period. The dynamic repetition of the wave forms evokes the era’s fascination with speed, progress and technological innovation, reflecting the visual language of the Machine Age, in which streamlined motion and modern engineering inspired both architecture and the decorative arts. This impression of forward movement is reinforced by the uninterrupted horizontal flow of the design, giving the bracelet a distinctly modern and energetic presence. Executed in platinum, the bracelet displays exceptional craftsmanship and meticulous stone setting, allowing maximum brilliance while preserving the lightness of the openwork structure. The scroll-like abstraction of natural forms into repeating patterns exemplifies the Art Deco ideal of transforming organic movement into elegant modern geometry.

NYX Ring 18kt yellow gold, diamonds, spessartine and red enamel At the heart of the Nyx Ring, a vivid natural spessartine appears almost illuminated from within, its intense orange colour emerging against deep red enamel, natural white diamonds and 18kt yellow gold. Named after Nyx, the primordial Greek goddess of night, the ring explores the tension between darkness and light.

De Wit Fine Tapestries
Large leaf verdure with wild boar Southern Netherlands, possibly Oudenaarde, 16th century Tapestry, wool and silk 265 x 370 cm This Large leaf lerdure with wild boar depicts an idealised view of nature. The vegetation is in bloom and various animals are roaming through the crops. Whilst tapestries of this type often survive in fragments, this piece is complete and contains all the typical, characteristic elements. The piece is in very good condition, with strong contrasting colours that emphasise the illusion of vibrant nature. Whereas we often see oval or circular balustrades in tapestries of this kind, which frame the natural scene behind them, the picture plane here is sharply interrupted by a straight balustrade. A gallery is formed which attempts to keep the viewer at a distance, but it cannot hold back the foliage, and some of the vegetation and animals pass beyond the frame and escape from the border.

William Turnbull (Dundee 1922-2012 London) Young Torso, 1981 Bronze 49 x 28.5 x 3 cm Edition of 6, AP 1/1 Provenance: the estate of the artist Literature: Amanda A. Davidson, The Sculpture of William Turnbull, The Henry Moore Foundation in association with Lund Humphries, 2005, cat. n° 205, ill. p. 154 William Turnbull (1922–2012) was one of the most distinctive sculptors and painters of post-war Britain. Throughout his career, he explored the enduring power of ancient and archaic art, seeking an elemental visual language that connects the distant past with the present. In Young Torso, Turnbull revisits the archetypal figures and totemic forms that fascinated him from the 1950s onwards. The simplified silhouette evokes prehistoric figurines and ancient idols, yet belongs to no specific culture or belief system. Both familiar and mysterious, the sculpture seems to speak a universal language whose meaning remains elusive. The warm brown patina and irregular surface suggest weathered stone, while delicate incisions recall tattoos or fragments of an unknown symbolic language. These markings animate the figure, hinting at lost rituals and traditions. Reflecting Turnbull’s sensitivity to surface, line and colour, the textured bronze combines tactile richness with formal simplicity. Neither an imitation of an ancient artefact nor a purely abstract form, Young Torso occupies a space between recognition and mystery. Through the encounter between archaic references and modern expression, Turnbull evokes humanity’s enduring desire to create forms that transcend time and preserve traces of our existence.
