EOS Ring Sandblasted 18k yellow gold and natural white diamonds Inspired by Eos, the Greek goddess of the dawn. She who brings the first light of day, casting a golden glow across the horizon before the world awakens. A symbol of renewal, radiance, and quiet transformation. Crafted in sandblasted 18k yellow gold, the ring carries a serene warmth. Its matte surface evokes the first rays of morning light diffused through the atmosphere - gentle, luminous, and timeless. Rather than reflecting light sharply, the gold seems to hold it within, creating a subtle glow that feels both ancient and contemporary. At its centre rests an elongated, natural, step-cut diamond. Surrounding white diamonds accentuate the composition, enhancing the contrast between the softness of the gold and the crystalline purity of the central stone.

Woolly mammoth original skull Mammuthus primigenius Origin: Siberia 50 thousand years old H 173 x W 162 x D 193 cm Casted tusks of the world famous Jarkov Mammoth This is an original skull of the extinct woolly mammoth (Mammuthus primigenius), an extinct relative of the modern-day elephant. The skull fragment is exceptionally well preserved and of outstanding quality. The original skull was discovered in the permafrost of northern Yakutia, Russia. The tusks are casts taken from the world-renowned Jarkov Mammoth, discovered in Siberia. The geological age of the original skull and the original tusks of the Jarkov Mammoth dates to the Late Pleistocene, approximately 20,000 to 25,000 years ago. At the time of its death, this mammoth is estimated to have been approximately 53 years old (± 2 years).

Gustave Serrurier-Bovy (Liège 1858-1910 Antwerp) Pair of armchairs ('ouvrier' series), circa 1904 Oak, black-painted iron and woven straw H 93 x W 50 x D 50 cm Produced by 'Serrurier et Cie' Literature: F. Bigot du Mesnil du Buisson & E. du Mesnil du Buisson, Serrurier-Bovy 'un créateur précurseur' 1858-1910, Paris, Faton, 2008 p. 150; Jacques-Grégoire Watelet, Serrurier-Bovy, Ateliers Vokaer, Bruxelles, 1986, pp. 88-89 A true manifesto of Gustave Serrurier-Bovy’s principles, this pair of armchairs, illustrated in Art Décoratif in 1904, embodies the foundations of the artist’s thinking. Functionality, clarity, simplicity of materials and lines - the use of oak and a backrest secured with simple iron screws, initially functional and subsequently decorative, together with a rush seat - are all characteristic of his approach. His commitment to serial production, allowing his work to reach a wider audience, further demonstrates his progressive vision. Together, these elements place Gustave Serrurier-Bovy at the forefront of modernity.

Rembrandt Bugatti (Milan 1884-1916 Paris) Small Elephant at Rest (1912), circa 1923 Bronze with a nuanced brown patina H 20.3 x W 20.5 x D 12.5 cm Signed ‘R. Bugatti’ Cast by Hébrard, numbered ‘11’, bears the mark ‘CIRE PERDUE A.A. HEBRARD’ Only twenty examples have been recorded to date. Certificate of authenticity by Véronique Fromanger Provenance: Cahier Hébrard inv. n° 3717, formerly in the collection of the Countess de V, Toulouse, acquired in 1923 or 1924; private collection, Marseille Literature: Véronique Fromanger, 'Rembrandt Bugatti, Sculptor: A Monographic Catalogue: A Meteoric Career', Paris, Les éditions de l’Amateur, 2016, model listed under n° 300, p. 364 All of Rembrandt Bugatti’s talent as an animal sculptor is evident in his Little Elephant at Rest, depicted standing upright, somewhat ungainly, leaning on his trunk to maintain his balance. Through the sensitive yet dynamic treatment of its modelling, the sculpture beautifully reveals the Master’s ability to convey a palpable sense of life through the medium of sculpture. This endearing model was produced in an edition of only 20 examples. This particular example, numbered 11, is distinguished by the beauty of its patina, with its particularly nuanced and delicate shades of brown enhanced by touches of green, as well as by the exceptional quality of its casting, executed by Albino Palazzolo at the Hébrard foundry. So finely rendered is the bronze that the artist’s fingerprints remain visible in numerous places.

Rectangular lacquered wooden suzuribako (writing box) Japan, Edo period (1603-1868) Wood, lacquer, silver, gold, hiramaki-e, takamaki-e, kirigane, gyōbu-nashiji, tsumemaki nashiji H 4.7 x W 27 x D 23.5 cm Decorated in gold lacquer with a continuous design depicting a pavilion set in a karst landscape dotted with pine and maple trees. Complete with an inkstone, a silver water dropper, a blade and a set of brushes. This Japanese suzuribako is a remarkable example of mid-Edo-period craftsmanship. Few works of art from this period have survived in such fine condition, and even fewer display such a rich variety of lacquer techniques. A writing box of this kind was most likely commissioned by a high-ranking member of the aristocracy, perhaps a bushi (warrior) or even a regional warlord (daimyo).
