AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Neolithic polished flint axe in good condition
Timeline 8000-2000 BC
15.0 cm x 7.2 x 2.5 cm


I bought the axe in the 1970s in Copenhagen (Denmark) in a Gallery.
In Denmark, you could buy beautiful Bronze and Stone Age objects back then, so I bought there often.

From my fifteenth year to my seventieth year I have built up a large collection of Bronze Age and Stone Age objects in all shapes, including Lausitzer pots. All from Western Europe and bought from private individuals, at auctions, collector markets, antique shops and sometimes received. I am now 84 and it is time to say goodbye to my collection.

I have no authenticity certificates or receipts for the items, and I can only say that I obtained the items legally.
If you have any doubts, please do not buy.

Attention!!!
I don't ship outside Europe.
