B.C.A.D. ART - 6th CENTURY B.C. BABYLONIAN TEMPLE BRICK
Dating to the Neo-Babylonian dynasty. Ca. 604-562 B.C. Important brick inscription dedicated to the most famous of all Kings of Babylon- Nebuchadnezzar II. The importance of this inscribed Clay Record is reflected by the fact that the inscription has been deciphered by Professor Lambert of Birmingham University. An internationally renowned expert in this field. Professor Lambert's hand written records read as follows: Brick Inscription of Nebuchadnezzar II. King of Babylon, 560 BC: Nebuchadnezzar. King of Babylon, provisioner of Esagil and Ezida, prime son of Nabopolassar. King of Babylon, am I. Ebabbara, the Temple of Shamash in Larsa I restored as it was before. For Shamash, my Lord. Cut from complete brick. But inscription complete. Dimensions of brick: 8-1/4" x 5-1/2" x 1-1/4" thick. Custom mount/frame. OF NOTE: Following ... morethe defeat of the Assyrian Empire by the Babylonians in 612 B.C. Nebuchadnezzar II rebuilt the city of Babylon on a grand scale. It has been estimated that 15 million baked bricks were used in the construction of official buildings. The bricks are usually square and often bear cuneiform inscriptions. Generally made with a stamp(as here) But occasionally written by hand. This example was cut from such a complete brick. For similar examples. See Christie's Sale 5951, Antiquities Including the Plesch Collection of Ancient Glass. 28 April 2009. London, South Kensington; also The British Museum. From a private New York collection.

An Antique Perrsian Glazed Decorated Pottery Bottle 18th century
This Iranian Persian-style vase is hand-made and hand-painted in flower motifs. Not as finely painted as some of the older Iznik pieces from old Persia. Yet an attractive and unusual decorative piece with some artistic merit. It has an unusual three-sided form. And has a very old-looking patina. The glaze is intact but rather crackled. At first glance, one would think it is a much older piece, but apparently these kinds of wares were and are still being made in Iran today. With the influx of Iranian immigrants to the US over the past few decades, these wares have been more available here. This and ane one above were acquired in San Diego, California where there is a large population of Iranian immigrants. Other Key Words: Persia.

This beautiful. Museum quality 17th Century Persian Safavid blue glazed bottle/ pottery/ vase for collector of Safavid or Ancient Persian art measures 5" tall x 5" wide and contains fanciful animal(dog and bird) and plant motifs. The bottle is in good condition for its age(approx. 350 years old) with some expected repairs to the rim. The gold paint and glazed blue color appear throughout the bottle(although some photos seem as if the motifs are partially dark blue and partially gold. This is a result of the flash and all of the motifs are outlined in gold) Some of the animals and plant motifs are more pronounced than others. You can compare it to the similar size and color Safavid bottle sold by Christie's London in 2011: and to another Safavid blue glazed bottle that sold in 1999 which has motifs somewhat similar to this one: ... moreI'm an art and antique collector and have a very nice private collection of art(Renaissance.

Prehistoric Mesopotamian (Hassunan) Terracotta Head (circa 5800 B.C.E.)
Prehistoric Mesopotamian(Hassunan) Terracotta Head(circa 5800 B.C.E. This is a superb example of a prehistoric( Huss unan) terracotta head. It was originally acquired from the renown author. Antiquities dealer and expert, Alex G. Malloy. The Hassunan Culture was a Neolithic archae ol ogical culture(circa 5.800 B.C.E. that flourished in northern Mesopotamia. It was named after Tell Hassuna. Near Mosul, in Iraq. The best studied remain is the settlement of Yarim-Tepe I, excavated by a Soviet expedition between 1969 and 1975. The settlements of the tribes of the Hassunan culture measured 1 to 2 hectares in area. The closely spaced rectangular mud-brick dwellings. With many rooms(three to ten and even more) were sometimes grouped around a court. Various outbuildings were found, including buildings for drying and storing grain. Potter’s kilns ... morewere also found. The discovery of grain(wheat and barley) stone hoes, querns, pestles, scythes, and other objects attest to the existence of primitive land cultivation. Judging from the finds of animal bones, the bearers of the Hassunan culture raised cows, hogs, and goats. The discovery of copper beads and pendants, a lead bracelet, and fragments of copper ore at the settlements indicate the existence of metallurgy. The Hassunan culture is characterized by a variety of vessels, decorated with molded ornamentation, incised herringbone patterns, and painted geometric designs, as well as by clay female figurines and stone seals. Numerous burials, with inhumations chiefly of children, were also unearthed.

Beautiful Napoleonic Islamic Carnelian Intaglio Talisman "Gol Noor Ali Shah"
On offer is this beautifully cut cornelian intaglio with an Islamic script. It bears the named inscription: Gol Noor Ali Shah" Likely the original owner of this seal. It would have been worn in a ring during the 18th-19th century. Rather than being used to seal wax documents as we do in Europe. These seals were first inked then used to stamp ink onto the document to be sealed. Usually the recesses are very shallow to allow for this. This seal stone is of great quality and has beautiful hand cut script that is an artwork all in itself. During the Napoleonic Wars. Napoleons sister-in-law(Queen Hortense) distributed engraved Islamic intaglios to officers, serving in Napoleon's military campaigns. It was a firm belief that they held protective qualities, saving many lives during battle. General du Rosnel declared in a letter that he ... moreowed his life to the talisman seal attached to his watch and went on to give out impressions to all his friends: thereafter young women continually approached Hortense for these engraved gems to give to their beloved, before going off to war. Napoleon had a similar talisman which he had picked up during the Egyptian campaign, which was engraved on cornelian. Napoleon III, who inherited it from his uncle, always wore it on his watch chain and in his turn bequeathed it to his son, the Prince Imperial; when the Prince was killed in 1879 during the war against the Zulus in South Africa, the talisman disappeared from his body and was not recovered. This is a great historical piece of jewellery. Would be ideal reset into a gold signet ring or watch fob Size: 19mm x 16mm x 4mm Weight: 2.8g Date: 18th-19th Century AD Material: Cornelian This item is guaranteed authentic and dates to the period described. A written guarantee can be provided on request. We accept returns if you are not satisfied with your purchase.

From the ruins many delightful terracottas have been recovered. Some animals, some human figures– all things that delighted the secular population until the city was destroyed by the invasions of the 7th-8th centuries. We agree with the description from Gump’s.

MEDIEVAL EUROPEAN DAGGER 800 YEARS OLD
This is a medieval dagger or side knife dating to about 1200 A.D. It is a type carried for personal defense by a man of modest means as there was no central law-enforcement at the time. It is well made and would have been among his most prized possessions. It is 5 3/8 inch overall length with most of the handle lacking. The blade has a deeply curved cutting edge and sharp point making it suitable for both stabbing and slashing. The right side has two makers’ marks. It was found in southern Germany( Bavaria) in the 1980s and professionally cleaned and preserved at that time. The shape of the blade with its flat sides meeting at the cutting-edge indicates its use as a weapon rather than a utility knife which would show signs of repeated sharpening.
