Presenting a stunning piece of Indian antiquity from the 10th century, namely, a temple bracket buff sandstone central India carving.<\/p>\n

From Central India.<\/p>\n

This piece has impeccable Provenance !<\/p>\n

It was purchased by a Private Dallas Collector at Sotheby’s New York Auction on 24th September 2004. Sale Number 8008, Lot No. 31.<\/p>\n

Sotheby’s operate a twice yearly auction of Southeast Asian Art & Antiquities in New York in the months of March and September.<\/p>\n

The sculpture was described as: “The three faces of the bracket carved in rtelief with images of the bearded Brahma, holding a kalasha on the left, a male deity holding a vajra at center and a griffin with a garland – bearing celestial above on the right, the top with an incised foliate decoration.<\/p>\n

Height 20.5 in. (52.1 cm.)<\/p>\n

Other Properties”<\/p>\n

It carried an Auction estimate of USD 4,000 to USD 6,000 and sold for USD 4,200 (not including buyers premium).<\/p>\n

Allowing for inflation alone this would be over $7,000 in today’s value.<\/p>\n

The original Sotheby’s Lot No. Label is still attached, as is the catalog label on the back.<\/p>\n

It has substantially increased in value over the years as a rare piece from a prestigious Collection and a rare piece of Asian antiquity.<\/span><\/p>\n
