AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

非常に精巧に彫刻されたエジプトの蛙の形をした護符。蛙は自然主義的に表現され、背部の隆起、屈んだ脚、大きな頭、飛び出した瞳が緻密に彫られている。裏面は未加工で無装飾。表面は滑らかで磨き上げられている。瑪瑙は茶褐色と白色の色調を示し、やや半透明である。護符は体を貫通していて、ぶら下げるための穴が開けられている。

メソポタミアでは、宝石が身に着けられるだけでなく、 temples に捧げる votive gifts(誓願品)としても奉納された。その目的はしばしば装飾的より実用的であり、体に身につけるペンダントはお守りとして邪を避け、着用者の力を高めるための talismans として機能した。メソポタミアの護符は、 Near East に自生する多様な動物を描いている。

Measurements: (circa) L 1.7cm x W 1.1cm x H 0.9cm

Provenance: 1990年代にロンドンの美術市場で入手した紳士のコレクション出自。
