Ancient Greek / Luristan Bronze Arrowhead Pendant – c. 1st Millennium BC

A striking and authentic ancient bronze arrowhead, dating to the Greek / Luristan cultural
sphere, circa 1st millennium BC, carefully adapted into a wearable pendant.

The arrowhead displays a classic tri-lobed form with a pronounced central blade and
flanking barbs, characteristic of ancient Near Eastern and Greek projectile points. The
surface is covered with a rich, stable green and turquoise patina, formed naturally over
centuries of burial, with earthy encrustations that attest to its genuine antiquity.

The piece has been respectfully mounted with a gold-toned wire suspension, allowing it
to be worn while fully preserving the integrity of the ancient artefact. No invasive
restoration has been undertaken; the form and surface remain intact and historically
honest.

Disclaimer: We advise against using it as a pendant do to still very sharp ends of the arrowhead.

Arrowheads such as this were used both in warfare and hunting, and today they are
highly sought after for their powerful symbolism—representing protection, precision, and
ancient craftsmanship.
