Table Basse Mosaïque Antique à l'Aigle
Date de création : Entre le Ve et le VIIe siècle (mosaïque), montée en table au XXe siècle
Période : Antiquité tardive, époque romaine ou byzantine (mosaïque)
Matériaux : Céramique et mosaïque (marbre et pierre)
Dimensions : 105 x 122 x 46 cm
Poids : Environ 150 kg
Cette exceptionnelle table basse antique est ornée d'une mosaïque à motif d'aigle, réalisée en tesselles de marbre et de pierre. Datant de la période romaine tardive ou byzantine (Ve - VIIe siècle), la mosaïque a été montée en table basse dans les années 80, transformant une pièce historique en un objet de décoration raffiné et pertinent.
D'une préservation exceptionnelle pour son âge, cette mosaïque conserve une grande partie de ses motifs décoratifs d'origine ainsi que la coloration originale des tesselles. Elle est montée sur un support en béton et encadrée, assurant ainsi sa solidité et sa préservation.
Historique et contexte :
Les mosaïques de l'Empire romain tardif et de la période byzantine étaient réalisées pour décorer les sols et les murs des villas, basiliques et palais, représentant souvent des scènes mythologiques, animalières ou religieuses. L'aigle, motif central de cette pièce, était un symbole de pouvoir, d'empire et de divinité, souvent associé à l'iconographie impériale romaine et chrétienne.

Sırlı Küp (Turkish Glazed Jar - Medium)
Located in Ojai, US
This medium glazed and limewashed küp was likely used to store cheese by generations of families in the Levant. The design is similar to jugs used to carry water, wine, or other liquids (as cheese is traditionally stored in its brine). Glazing and lime-washing are techniques that has been used for centuries by Anatolian ceramicists to refresh, seal, and protect a clay vessel.
Cheese is a staple in most Turkish breakfasts today, with a fascinating history springing from the Fertile Crescent: the region of Southwest Asia that includes portions of present-day Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Around 8000 BCE, the first humans to keep livestock began firing pottery that could store dairy products in the warm climate. In this process, they discovered that they could use ceramic strainers...

19th Century European Hercules Herm Architectural Carving
Located in West Palm Beach, FL
19th Century European Hercules Herm Architectural Carving
Hand-carved wood, 42" high × 4" wide × 3.5" deep
A finely carved wood architectural fragment in the form of a Herm of Hercules, dating to the 19th century and drawing upon Renaissance and Baroque precedents. The sculpture shows the muscular torso of a mature, bearded male figure with a deeply furrowed brow, curling hair, and a voluminous beard. His body is rendered in tapering herm form, with a draped cloth across the midsection leading into a long rectangular plinth decorated with foliate carving.
The herm derives from classical antiquity, where stone posts surmounted by the head or bust of Hermes (and later other gods or heroes) served as boundary markers and architectural supports. During the Renaissance and Neoclassical revivals, this form was adapted into decorative architecture, furniture, and garden ornaments, often featuring heroic or mythological figures such as Hercules to convey strength and guardianship.
The stern expression, powerful musculature, and prominent beard allude to Hercules, the archetype of heroic masculinity. Such carvings were often installed as newel posts, pilaster ornaments, or architectural appliqués...
