Description from the seller
Silver miniature royal carriage with horses – Djokja (Yogyakarta) – circa mid-20th century
Description:
A very finely crafted silver miniature of a ceremonial royal carriage with horses, produced in the traditional Djokja style (Yogyakarta, Indonesia), probably from the mid-20th century.
The object is completely handmade and assembled from several separate silver components, including the richly decorated carriage, the coachman, and the team of horses. The detailing is exceptional: visible are, among other things, the harness, the wheels, ornaments on the carriage, and a crown atop, which underscores its ceremonial character.
The silver is unmarked, which is typical for Yogyakarta silver intended for export. There is a stamp on the wooden base, which is common on Indonesian export pieces. The miniature sits on a wooden stand with red velvet lining, also characteristic of this type of work.
A decorative and collectible piece, beloved by collectors of Djokja-silver, Asian silver, and handmade miniatures.
