Provenance
Sergio and Yvonne Franchi Pre Columbian Collection
Most people remember my father, Sergio Franchi as one of the great Italian tenors, but what is not well known is that he was trained as an architectural draftsman. While living in Johannesburg after WWII he worked in commercial interior design and furniture design. He was also a talented painter. My parents Yvonne and Sergio first fell in love with Pre-Columbian art when they arrived in the US in the 1960s. It showed well with their African art collection. I remember in 1966 Dad designed a very modern den in our apartment in Manhattan, where the African and Pre-Columbian were displayed. My parents enjoyed the way these pieces worked well in a contemporary interior. Greta Franchi-Galli

Consequently, he furnished innumerable outstanding examples of Indian art to more than a dozen major museums, including the Southwest Museum, Detroit Institute of the Arts, Cranbrook Institute of Science, Field Museum, Denver Art Museum, and the National Museum of the American Indian. As a result of Mr. Chandlers close association and interaction with various Indian groups, families of the Pawnee, Meshquaki (Fox), and Potawatomi tribes felt called to adopt and bestow formal Indian names upon him. As a predominant interest throughout much of his life, Mr. Chandler focused on the widely varying and complex aspects of grizzly bear power or medicinethe ceremonies, dances, representations in the arts (paintings, porcupine quillwork, and beadwork)and above all, on the imposing and highly emblematic necklaces made of grizzly bear claws. Throughout his frequent and wide-ranging travels he consistently sought after and accumulated grizzly claws as they came availableone at a time, or several. Additionally, fortune permitted Mr. Chandler to obtain a number of magnificent original claw necklaces themselves. Being the consummate craftsman he was, and meticulously selecting only premium claws as they came to him, Mr. Chandler managed to assemble three superlative grizzly claw necklaces of differing tribal styleseach composed of the long, very much preferred, honey-colored bear claws. One necklace was of the Chippeway (Ojibwe) type, one Meshquaki (or Fox Tribe), and the magnificent Pawnee-style necklace offered here.
