World Class…
Riaan Bolt Antiques presents this exceptional bronze “Seated Woman” on a granite base by Fanie Eloff (SA 1885–1947) which is signed and stamped with the Valsuani foundry mark.
Stephanus Johannes Paulus “Fanie” Eloff (1885–1947) was a pioneering South African impressionist sculptor and the grandson of President Paul Kruger. Originally sent to Europe to study mining engineering, Eloff was captivated by the Parisian art scene and shifted his focus to sculpture under the profound influence of Auguste Rodin. He achieved international acclaim at the 1912 Paris Salon and earned an honourable mention at the 1924 Paris Summer Olympics for his bronze masterpiece, The Boxer. Blessed with a private income that freed him from commercial pressures, Eloff focused on artistic perfection, frequently using dancers and athletes as models to masterfully capture fluid motion, physical tension, and emotional spontaneity in bronze and marble. Today, his most iconic monumental work, The Discus Thrower, stands at the entrance of the Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria. His broader body of work is preserved internationally and across major South African public collections, including the Pretoria Art Museum, the University of Pretoria, the Iziko South African National Gallery in Cape Town, the Ditsong National Museum of Cultural History, and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.

Just beautiful…
Melissa Antique Jewellery will be offering this captivating example of early 20th-century design. This exquisite Art Nouveau pendant, circa 1907, is crafted in luxurious 18 carat gold and showcases the era’s signature fluidity and organic elegance. The openwork design is beautifully balanced, featuring delicate, sinuous lines adorned with shimmering rose-cut diamonds set in fine milgrain detail. At its heart, three lustrous cultured pearls are nestled within leaf-like motifs, adding a soft, luminous contrast to the brilliance of the diamonds. Suspended below, a vibrant oval-cut ruby forms a striking focal point, its rich crimson hue elegantly framed in a warm gold setting. Both refined and expressive, this pendant is a timeless collector’s piece—perfect for those who appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship of antique jewellery from the turn of the century.
