Beautiful Roman bronze bust of Mars

The bust of the god Mars is crafted as an appliqué. He wears a tall helmet with a richly feathered crest. Beneath it, his curly hairstyle is revealed, framing his oval face with its generalized features. His forehead is broad and low, his cheeks only slightly convex. His deep-set eyes are overlooked by straight eyebrows. His neck is short and flows seamlessly into his powerful chest. The bust depicts half of his torso in military attire. The back is curved.

Roman glass vessel in the shape of a bird

A glass vessel with a spout, its shape reminiscent of a bird. Also known as a pouring vessel, dropper flask, or suction bottle. Free-blown glass without any decorations. The body is disc-shaped and flared, with a bluntly rounded base and a long neck at the top, the lip of which widens outwards into a trefoil opening. A pointed spout emerges from the body just above the base. The end was cut off in antiquity, allowing the spout to function as a pouring, dripping, or suction opening.

Qing Dynasty porcelain cup - Ca Mau shipwreck ware - Ex Sotheby's

Chinese teacup. The exterior is decorated with flowers and tendrils, bordered at the top and bottom by a narrow, continuous blue line. Inside, on the base, is a flower motif in a wide concentric double circle, with a zigzag band of closely spaced, diagonal lines running around the rim. These lines almost merge into a single line, yet remain visually distinct.
Having been submerged underwater for nearly 300 years, the porcelain has been perfectly preserved, making it a very rare example of the booming Chinese porcelain industry of the 18th century, which was only copied in Europe after considerable effort ("Meissen porcelain"). Pieces of this quality are found in important porcelain collections.

Large Attic Black-Figure Eye Cup

Delicately crafted, deep hemispherical cup with a high foot and two very slightly curved handles, which extend to a height just below the rim.
A narrow black glaze band at the rim. Below, on each side, a large polychrome pair of eyes. Each eye is framed in black; the white eyeball features a large red iris and an oversized black pupil. Curved lines around the eyes create the optical impression of a nose when viewed frontally; the eyebrows are also indicated by curved lines. To the sides of each pair of eyes are figures of dancing youths (komasts) shown in profile, always positioned with their backs to the handle and looking toward the eyes. They are rendered in black with anatomical details highlighted by incision. One of the youths wears a red headband, while some others have hair highlighted in red.
Below, a broad encircling glaze band framed by three narrow bands on each side. A rays pattern surrounds the transition between the body and the foot. The stem and the top of the base are completely covered in black glaze, as is the interior of the hollow foot. Handles are black glazed, with only a narrow reserved band on the inside. Beneath the handles (between the komasts), harmoniously curved and nested drops/brushstrokes, topped by a dot and a stylized leaf. The interior is completely black glazed except for a small central reserved circle containing a black ring and a concentric dot

Bust of Antinoos, decoration of a roman folding table - ex Christie's

On a rectangular, profiled base, which is thus articulated in three dimensions, rises the bust of a boy, which formerly adorned the top of a Roman folding table. The head is tilted slightly to the right, the gaze dreamily into the distance. The very full hair is carefully styled, and details are rendered in cold work. A band is curved diagonally across the bare chest. A diagonal brace runs along the back of the bust.
Below the base is a finely fluted, sculpted leg, which is preserved up to below the decorative rotelle.
The 1971 inventory of the Schwitter-Lagutt Collection identifies the figure as Antinous, the favorite and presumably also lover of Emperor Hadrian. This would date the piece to the beginning of the 2nd century AD.

Etruscan necklace with bronze and amber beads

An elaborately assembled necklace, consisting of alternating bronze and probably amber beads. The bronze beads are all made with loops, some simply biconical, others bulbous and decorated with grooves, thus likely representing miniature vessels.
