AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This exceptional ancient Greek bronze arrowhead dates to the 7th–6th century BCE and remains in an intact, superbly maintained condition. With its rare shape and the distinctive counter-spikes, it is a particularly valuable example of ancient Greek art and military technology. The excellent blade with sharp edges and the splendid light-green patina preserve its historical character perfectly.

The arrowhead is 4.5 cm long, made of bronze, and due to its rarity is rarely available on the market. The object was acquired in 2026 at an auction house in Europe and originally came from a private collection dating back to 1990. The authenticity is confirmed as an original, and I confirm the legal acquisition and the right to resell.
