Catalogue note
From the 2nd century through to the 15th century, the Champa Empire flourished in present-day central and southern Vietnam. As a result of the region being divided by numerous rivers and separated by mountains, Champa was not a unified kingdom but rather a coalition of polities whose power waxed and waned. The Champa empire borrowed heavily from Indian culture and religion, even adopting Sanskrit as its sacred language. In Sanskrit, Champa is the name of a bush and a flower.

Maritime trade was the primary source of income for the seafaring Cham; many also earned a living through farming, silk weaving, and gold jewellery crafting. From the 10th century onwards, Arab merchants stopped along the Vietnamese coast en route to China, bringing an increased Islamic cultural and religious influence.

As seen in this exquisite group of 14th-century Champa gold rings in the collection, each ring is set with a precious stone in a high collet, decorated with intricate repoussé work on the shanks and engraved with a four-petaled lotus motif on the reverse. Each piece shows considerable Arabic artisanal influence.

This group of gold jewellery remains as evidence of this once great civilization before its fall to northern Vietnamese invaders in the 15th century.

占城為中南半島古國，為今越南中南部。唐代以前，中國古籍稱為林邑，唐代史籍稱環王國，五代十國後稱占城。占城肇建於二世紀，覆亡於十五世紀，國祚超過一千六百年。

由於占城的河流眾多，縱橫交錯，加上高山林立，本土地理位置使占城的權力相對分散，地方勢力盛衰無常。占城深受印度的文化及信仰影響，更參照了梵文創立了獨有的文字。「占城」在梵文便是「邑」、「城」的意思。

占族人的主要收入來自海上貿易、次要收入則來自畜牧、絲綢紡織及珠寶製作。自十世紀開始，占族人與阿拉伯商貿頻密，大大受到伊斯蘭教文化的影響。部份族人亦由婆羅門教改信伊斯蘭教。

雪月收藏中包括一組十四世紀戒指，工巧精緻，實屬占城金器之至臻典範。每枚戒指皆鑲嵌寶石，柄飾別緻花紋，背刻四瓣蓮紋，反映著當時占城與阿拉伯文化的交流，及古國權傾一時之景。

Catalogue note
Easily recognisable by his elephant head and human body, Ganesh is the god of wisdom, intelligence, education and prudence. The myth of Ganesh explains that he was the son of Shiva and Parvati, and was originally born with a human head. While Shiva was away at war, Parvati appointed her son to guard her chambers, and permit none to pass while she was bathing.

Shiva had never seen his son, having left for war before he was born. When he returned, he went straight to Parvati’s chambers, and there met Ganesh. When Ganesh refused to let him pass, as his mother had ordered, Shiva cut off his son’s head in fury. Parvati saw what had happened, and collapsed in grief, telling her husband of his terrible mistake and implored him to bring their son back to life.

Shiva sent his servants and commanded them to bring back the head of the first living creature they came across. When they returned, they brought with them the head of an elephant, and using this Shiva brought his son back to life, with an elephant’s head on his shoulders in place of his human head.

Half man, half elephant, with a round belly, representing abundance and generosity, he has small eyes, a symbol of concentration, and big ears representing the need to talk less and listen more. He is joined by his companion, Mûshika the mouse.

Catalogue note
In Tibet, the most common gemstones used in jewellery and ritual ornaments are coral, turquoise, and pearls. Despite being in a territory rich in natural resources, Tibetans generally confine their choice of gemstones to these three varieties; they are opposed to the mining of precious stones, for fear of offending the gods and spiritual guardians.

Influenced by neighbouring cultures from India, Tibetans believed gemstones are prophylactic, possessing medicinal and magical properties. Gems were thought to represent the universe and take on the characteristics of the ruling planets. In this example, coral is associated with Mars and was considered a protection against fever and kidney disease. Tibetan also believed that gold possesses restorative qualities that could prolong life and ward off demons.

This type of ring, which is popular throughout Tibet, is named after its resemblances to the high-shouldered Tibetan saddle.

藏人常用珊瑚、綠松石和珍珠這三類寶石作為首飾的主石。儘管西藏擁有自然資源豐富，藏人避免開採天然資源，或採礦這三類以外的寶石，以免惹怒神靈。

受鄰近印度文化的影響，藏人相信寶石根據自身特點能預防和治癒各種疾病。每顆寶石代表著相對行星的特性。以拍品1009為例，他們相信珊瑚與火星互相聯繫，可以預防肝臟和腎臟疾病。藏人亦相信黃金具有可以使人復活及辟邪的能力。

這類戒指於西藏非常流行。戒指的外形與馬鞍相似，英文名稱為「saddle ring」，意譯「馬鞍形戒指」。

Catalogue note
The Khmer Empire was a powerful state in Southeast Asia from the 9th to 15th century. At its peak, it controlled present-day Cambodia and large areas of Vietnam, Thailand, and Laos.

Before and during the Khmer Empire, the region was heavily influenced by India. In the later 8th century, the Javanese conquered part of the Pre-Angkorian empire, which greatly influenced the style of ornamentation found in the Angkor period. The Hindu-Buddhist iconography became prominent, as seen in a group of gold rings in the collection.

The most remarkable group of rings in this collection come from the Angkor period. These rings can be stylistically identified by the architectural features mirrored in the goldwork, reminiscent of details found on the friezes of the Angkor Wat temple complex. Their superb craftsmanship and sumptuousness suggests the rings were made for the royal court.

高棉帝國又稱吳哥王朝，九至十五世紀時國力強盛，創造了舉世聞名的吳哥文明。高棉帝國於鼎盛時期的領土範圍覆蓋現柬埔寨、越南、泰國及老撾。

高棉帝國的前身為中國古籍中所稱的國家真臘，真臘深受印度教文化的影響。至八世紀末，真臘被來自爪哇的夏連特拉王朝征服。爪哇文化的引入奠定了高棉吳哥王朝時期的藝術風格。從雪月收藏中的一系列高棉金戒指可見，帶印度教和佛教的圖案紋飾大行其道。

雪月收藏中最引人注目的正為一組九世紀來自吳哥王朝時期的金戒指，當中精品匠心獨妙，雍容華麗，應為宮廷所作。

Provenance
Habsburg-Feldman Geneva, 14th May 1990, lot 152.

Catalogue note
Jewellery has been the most prevalent form of ancient goldware across Southeast Asia, of which the most impressive traces of Indonesian civilisation are from Java. The Tuyet Nguyet and Stephen Markbreiter Collection includes a significant portion of gold jewellery from this region dating from the 7th to early 16th century, a period also known as the Classical Period, illustrating Javanese goldsmiths’ copious variety and intricate artistry.

The Classical Period is conventionally divided into three phases: Early Classical Period (7th – 9th century), where the political power was based in Central Java; Middle Classical Period (10th – mid 13th century), where the authority shifted to East Java; and Late Classical Period (mid 13th – early 16th century), which is characterised by the Majapahit Empire – one of the greatest of the early Indonesian kingdoms. The Majapahit Empire came to its demise in 1519 with the arrival of Islam, signalling the end of the Classical Period as a whole.

During this period, Javanese goldsmiths were highly esteemed in society, listed among the five main crafts. They produced some of the most unique and intricate gold jewellery, particularly rings. Their skill was highly advanced, creating designs that significantly diverged from their Southeast Asian counterparts, such as rings with auspicious motifs, horn-shaped rings, wire-wrapped rings, rings associated with Hindu-Buddhist iconography, and ear clips.

古典珠寶常被視為金器板塊中的典範，當中最能體現印尼古國文明的珠寶莫過於爪哇金飾。雪月亞洲藝術珍品收藏正囊括了一組印尼爪哇七至十六世紀初的金飾。此時期被稱爲印度的古典時期，當時金匠的造詣高深精絕、靈巧精緻，達到登峰造極的水平，創造出多款新穎的款式及紋飾。

印度的古典時期普遍可分爲三個階段：早古典時期（七至九世紀），當時政權集中於中爪哇省；中古典時期（十至十三世紀中），政權慢移至東爪哇省；再到滿者伯夷立國，標誌著後古典時期的開始（十三至十六世紀初）。滿者伯夷國立國於爪哇島東部，乃一個重要的印度教古國，巔峰時期其領土範圍遠至泰國南部、菲律賓、東帝汶。後期帝國慢慢受到伊斯蘭文化的影響，勢力逐漸衰落，1519年亡國，結束了整個古典時期。

古典時期的爪哇非常看重金匠，金藝被視為五大手工行業之一。爪哇金匠打造的黃金珠寶，尤其是戒指，樣式別致，風格獨特。他們超凡的技藝使爪哇在東南亞國家之中獨占鰲頭，創造出多款新穎款式，例如刻有吉祥圖案的戒指、纍絲戒指、具印度教和佛教意象的戒指，以及耳夾等等。

Condition Report
The red gems are likely to be corundum (ruby/pink sapphire). One of them with a very minute hairline crack. Otherwise, the ring is in good overall condition, with expected very minor wear consistent with age.

Catalogue note
Goldsmiths in Bali are masters of the granulation technique; small gold grains are delicately soldered to the ring surface to create intricate designs. A gold strip is additionally folded over the primary stone, holding the stone and forming a collar around it. Lot 1018 is a remarkable example of the southern Balinese style, with the birds’ beaks serve as prongs to hold the primary stone, a concept known from 15th-century East Java Majaphait times.

峇里金匠擅長黃金珠化工藝，透過潑珠化及液態黃金的表面張力，將黃金製成細珠。工匠將細小黃金顆粒焊接在戒指表面，塑造出精緻設計，再用金片包鑲主石。拍品1008可算南方峇里金飾之至臻典範，戒指兩旁飾上兩隻小鳥，鳥嘴巧作二爪鑲嵌寶石。此爪鑲方式可追溯到十五世紀位於印尼東爪哇的滿者伯夷國。
