Description: This is an Estate Fresh old from a longtime collector of and dealer of English & Asian Antiquities and Artifacts. It was an amazing collection and a once in a lifetime sale for those of us that truly appreciate Antiques and Antiquities. This piece is a fantastic Indus Valley Elliptical Bowl with applied Geometric Triangle & Diamond Motif decoration, both with bright red centres. The piece dates to over 2000 BC, I cannot imaging ever holding a piece of that age. It has the typical exposed foot ring found on most IV pieces I have seen. It comes with an original Certificate of Authenticity from Ancient Art of London. Just a beauty! This was the Estate of Brian Hand Derrick (1932 – 2019) locked away for a couple years while the family sorted this amazing collection. He was a graduate of Queens College in NYC with 3 Master’s Degrees including an MBA. He served in the Air Force retiring as a Major, then worked for the Government traveling and living all over the world. He bought at Auctions all over as well as from “Ancient Art” – London’s Leading Purveyor of Antiquities and other places around the world. His collection was a wide range of interesting items and I was fortunate enough to garner several nice pieces for both myself and to pass along to other collectors. I will list them as I can. Please check out my item condition description above and check out my photos so that you will know exactly what you are buying because you are buying it as seen, as is, and as found. Any questions PLEASE ask! Thanks for looking at my Auctions & Buy it Nows, and PLEASE, check and see the other cool stuff I have listed currently!! All quoted shipping costs include Insurance.
