洛雷斯坦 黄铜色 刀刃 (没有保留价)
编号 82851309
编号 82851309
A fine Luristan cast bronze axe head featuring a broad shaft-hole with thickened rims, decorated with raised vertical ridges. The blade is constricted from the shaft and flares out towards the convex cutting edge. An attractive patination and some earthly encrustation cover the surface.
Luristan bronze comes from the province of Lorestan. Axe heads, such as this nice example, would have been used in everyday life but also buried together with the deceased.
Measurements: L 10.5cm x H 5cm x W 4.6cm
Provenance: Ex. London Collection, formed between 1990 - present.
