    Lapis-lazuli block of 2.8 kg on a brass base from Afghanistan.
    A wonderful unique piece!
    Lapis-Lazuli, whose royal blue color is highly sought after, is the most famous of the stones linked to intuition. The great rulers of the world (Pharaohs, emperors, kings, etc.) have always considered it a sacred stone intended to help them achieve on g-reign with wisdom and justice. The Egyptians in particular held Lapis in high esteem and imported it from Afghanistan where it has been extracted for 6500 years.
    Lapis-lazuli has therefore always symbolized royalty, that is to say the ability to reign over one's inner and outer kingdom q-guided by the intuition of a divine source and not by selfish personal will.
    The gentle energy of lapis will benefit those who are willing and in control. It will promote subtle listening and afuidity in their actions, which will ease tensions.
    Lapis has the reputation of also being the stone of friendship because it helps to intuitively perceive what is right in a relationship, so it will have its place in your living room such as the living room, living room or a desk.
    The most beautiful Lapis Lazuli come from the province of Badakhshan in northern Afghanistan. In a narrow valley, covered with snow most of the year, mines have been exploited for 6500 years!
    The Sumerians, then later the Egyptians appreciated this blue stone, as evidenced by the many statues and blue beads found in the tombs of important people. And all of them, like this one, came from the Afghan mountains.
    Lapis-Lazuli is a rock composed of 14 different minerals, the main one being Lazurite, blue, and the little golden touch brought by the Pyrite which sprinkles this mineral.
    A few veins of white Calcite run through this magnificent piece.

    Rattan, a material with extraordinary properties with limits. Rattan is a vine of the Palm race, which grows in very humid or even swampy equatorial forests.

    With its siliceous skin like glass, this extremely solid and light vine is particularly resistant to humidity, as are tropical woods, teak or others.

    But this resistance has its limits. Exposed to rain, rattan resists very well for a whole day or even a few days. But if this rain continues for too many hours, the humidity will gradually penetrate the Rattan, and day after day the material kept damp will end up slowly degrading and losing its resistance qualities.

    The physical limits of rattan imply precautions for use. On the terraces of Parisian cafes, the chairs can last for decades while they are often in the rain all day for long periods. But they are piled up every night under cover and can thus dry out.

    More generally, rattan can withstand rain for long hours without compromising its longevity, but must be able to dry regularly.

    In practice, rattan furniture can stay outside throughout the "summer season", the weather is hot and rather dry, continuous rains exceptionally last more than three or four days and Rattan withstands such rains without degrading.

    But as soon as the season advances, the temperature drops, there is a lot of condensation and humidity, the Rattan will gradually become humid, the long and heavy rains accentuating this degradation. In practice, these are sensitive situations by the sea.

    It is then imperative to put the seats under shelter, a ventilated shelter to avoid progressive humidification as soon as the "bad season" arrives, in practice from mid-October to mid-March for a continental climate.

    The alternative if you want to use your Rattan furniture all year round, is to put it away daily, every evening, as Parisian terraces do.

    In summary, 2 main principles to respect:

    During the winter season (October 15 to March 15 in Europe) in all climates: the furniture must be stored “dry”. It can however be left outside during the day, but must imperatively be put in the dry during the night.

    During the "beautiful season", the rest of the time, the Rattan can remain permanently outside.

    However, if a lasting rain arrives, the Rattan should only be left in this rain for two or three days at the most, before drying the furniture to

    so that it can dry out. He only takes it out once the rain has stopped (In any case, a terrace cannot be used in the rain).

  • Balrnacles Shells on Brass Stand - H27cm

    €600.00

    Bouquet of natural shells composed of large purple barnacles: Megabalanus tinnabulum, and those strange oysters with such a twisted mouth: the Lopha Cristagalli.

    Both species live in the same Indo-Pacific region and found the "cockscomb" oysters with a few barnacles on a shipwreck off Surabaya in Java.

    They have been grouped to give a round shape instead of the flat side they have, attached to the boat.

    A cultural and natural piece at the same time.

    A magnificent unique piece!

  • Tridacna Derasa Clam on Wooden Stand

    €1,560.00

    Tridacna Derasa clam on a black wooden stand.

    A magnificent unique piece, a rarity!

    Very beautiful Tridacna Derasa holy water font presented on a custom-made wooden stand. Its two faces are remarkable.

      A black wooden base supports and delicately presents this shell.

    The famous giant clam, the world's largest species of bivalve shell that has always spawned legends of divers held underwater between its mighty shells.

    Of course, it is a young Tridacna Derasa, but this subspecies generally does not exceed 60cm. Its growth at the start is about 5cm per year then it will increase to 3cm per year.

    It is therefore not a very young clam.

    Like most giant clams, this species is in danger because it is over-harvested, either for its flesh in Asia, or as decorative shellfish.

    This one comes from a farm in Micronesia which hopes to succeed in regenerating the local population.

    Width (cm): 22.00

    Height (cm): 31.00

    Rattan, a material with extraordinary properties with limits.

    Rattan is a vine of the Palm race, which grows in very humid or even swampy equatorial forests.

    With its siliceous skin like glass, this extremely solid and light vine is particularly resistant to humidity, as are tropical woods, teak or others.

    But this resistance has its limits. Exposed to rain, rattan resists very well for a whole day or even a few days. But if this rain continues for too many hours, the humidity will gradually penetrate the Rattan, and day after day the material kept damp will end up slowly degrading and losing its resistance qualities.

    The physical limits of rattan imply precautions for use. On the terraces of Parisian cafes, the chairs can last for decades while they are often in the rain all day for long periods. But they are piled up every night under cover and can thus dry out.

    More generally, rattan can withstand rain for long hours without compromising its longevity, but must be able to dry regularly.

    In practice, rattan furniture can stay outside throughout the "summer season", the weather is hot and rather dry, continuous rains exceptionally last more than three or four days and Rattan withstands such rains without degrading.

    But as soon as the season advances, the temperature drops, there is a lot of condensation and humidity, the Rattan will gradually become humid, the long and heavy rains accentuating this degradation. In practice, these are sensitive situations by the sea.

    It is then imperative to put the seats under shelter, a ventilated shelter to avoid progressive humidification as soon as the "bad season" arrives, in practice from mid-October to mid-March for a continental climate.

    The alternative if you want to use your Rattan furniture all year round, is to put it away daily, every evening, as Parisian terraces do.

    In summary, 2 main principles to respect:

    During the winter season (October 15 to March 15 in Europe) in all climates: the furniture must be stored “dry”. It can however be left outside during the day, but must imperatively be put in the dry during the night.

    During the "beautiful season", the rest of the time, the Rattan can remain permanently outside.

    However, if a lasting rain arrives, the Rattan should only be left in this rain for two or three days at the most, before putting the furniture in the dry place so that it can dry. He only takes it out once the rain has stopped (In any case, a terrace cannot be used in the rain).

  • Huge Agate Slice of 3,7kg

  • Engraving of Shah Jahan on Horseback 50x70cm

    €360.00

    Magnificent engraving of Shah Jahan parading on horseback.

    Beautiful warm and deep colors, aged carved wood frame.

    Dimensions of the glass pane: 50x70cm.

    Mirza Shahab-ud-Din Baig Muhammad Khan Khurram (5 January 1592 – 22 January 1666), also known as Shah Jahan I, literally 'King of the World', was the fifth Mongol emperor, reigning from 1628 to 1658. Under his reign, the Mongols reached the height of their architectural achievements and cultural glory.

    Third son of Jahangir (r. 1605-1627), Shah Jahan participated in military campaigns against the Rajputs of Mewar and the Lodis of the Deccan. After Jahangir's death in October 1627, Shah Jahan defeated his youngest brother Shahryar Mirza and crowned himself emperor in Agra Fort. In addition to Shahryar, Shah Jahan executed most of his rival claimants to the throne. He commissioned many monuments, including the Red Fort, the Shah Jahan Mosque and the Taj Mahal, where his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal, is buried. In foreign affairs, Shah Jahan presided over aggressive campaigns against the Deccan sultanates, conflicts with the Portuguese, and wars with the Safavids. He also put down several local rebellions and faced the devastating Deccan famine of 1630–32.

    In September 1657, Shah Jahan fell ill and appointed his eldest son Dara Shikoh as his successor. This appointment led to a succession crisis among his three sons, of which Shah Jahan's third son, Aurangzeb (r. 1658–1707), emerged victorious and became the sixth emperor, executing all of his surviving brothers, including the Crown Prince Dara Shikoh. After Shah Jahan recovered from his illness in July 1658, Aurangzeb imprisoned his father at Agra Fort from July 1658 until his death in January 1666.[6] He was buried next to his wife in the Taj Mahal. His reign is known for putting an end to the liberal policies initiated by Akbar.

    During Shah Jahan's era, Islamic revival movements like the Naqshbandi began to shape Mongolian politics.

  • Engraving of Aurangzeb 50x70cm

    €360.00

    Magnificent engraving of Aurangzeb parading on horseback.

    Beautiful warm and deep colors, aged carved wood frame.

    Dimensions of the glass pane: 50x70cm.

    Muhi al-Din Muhammad (c. 1618 – March 3, 1707), commonly known as Aurangzeb lit. 'Ornament of the throne' and by his royal name Alamgir I, lit. 'Conqueror of the world', was the sixth Mughal emperor, reigning from 1658 until his death in 1707.

    Under his reign, the Mongol empire reached its peak with a territory covering almost the entire Indian subcontinent.

    Widely considered the last effective Mongol ruler, Aurangzeb compiled the Fatawa 'Alamgiri and was among the few monarchs to fully establish Sharia law and Islamic economics throughout the Indian subcontinent.

    Aurangzeb belonged to the aristocratic Timurid dynasty, held administrative and military positions under his father Shah Jahan (r. 1628–1658), and was recognized as an accomplished military commander. Aurangzeb was viceroy of Deccan in 1636-1637 and governor of Gujarat in 1645-1647. He jointly administered the provinces of Multan and Sindh in 1648-1652 and continued his expeditions into neighboring Safavid territories. In September 1657, Shah Jahan appointed his eldest and liberal son Dara Shikoh as his successor, a decision repudiated by Aurangzeb, who proclaimed himself emperor in February 1658. In April 1658, Aurangzeb defeated Shikoh's allied army and the kingdom of Marwar at victory. Aurangzeb's decisive victory at the Battle of Samugarh in May 1658 cemented his sovereignty and his suzerainty was recognized throughout the Empire. After Shah Jahan recovered from his illness in July 1658, Aurangzeb declared him incompetent to rule and imprisoned his father in Agra Fort.
