We’re happy to send you a summary of the differing conditions and prices we may have for the same title. DESCRIPTION: Softcover: 224 pages. Publisher: Thames and Hudson; 1996) Sumptuously illustrated! From the simple shell beads worn by Paleolithic hunters to the splendor of Renaissance gold work and the sumptuousness of Art Nouveau enamels. Here is a guide to the evolution of Western jewelry, concluding with the radical and experimental developments of the last three decades. Offering a survey of the entire field, the book is organized into chronological sections starting with the ancient world and progressing through the Middle Ages and the Baroque to the Belle Epoque and Art Deco eras, finally reaching the present day. The author, Clare Phillips, analyzes jewelry's changing fashions, explores its social context, and examines how it has been worn by both men and women. She shows how jewelers have responded to new sources of gems, whether emeralds from the New World or diamonds from South Africa, and to the discovery of metals such as platinum and aluminum. Masterworks by unknown craftsmen and pieces designed by individual artists such as Holbein, Pugin and Calder, are illustrated alongside the glittering products of the major jewelry houses- Cartier, Fouquet and Faberge among others.

The rubies would begin budding as small white gems, and would slowly grow and ripen, turning red in the light of the sun. When the ruby was saturated with red color, it was ready to be plucked. In the classical ancient world, rubies from Afghanistan, Ceylon, India and Burma were traded in the ancient port cities of the Eastern Mediterranean(often by Phoenicians) and from there traveled throughout Europe. However it is believed that most of the ancient world’s ruby came from Ceylon, where evidence suggests ruby may have been mined for the past 20,000 years.

Paleolithic Broad flaked bi-facial hand axe
NEOVENATOR Possibly the UK's biggest killer dinosaur. It once roamed the areas of Southern England around 120 million years ago. Preying on the herds of Iguanodon and also, I would imagine, the numerous long necked sauropods that were around at this time. It is related to the T-Rex busting Carcharodontosaurus. PALAEOLITHIC Bi-Facial Hand Axe ANCIENT EARLY HUMAN TOOL Above: similar example(not the one in this auction) EARLY HUMAN DEVELOPMENT: Palaeolithic' or Old Stone Age. Is described as the earliest period of human development and the longest phase of mankind's history. It is approximately co-extensive with the Pleistocene geologic epoch, beginning about 2 million years ago and ending in various places between 40,000 and 10,000 years ago, when it was succeeded by the Mesolithic period. By far the most outstanding feature of ... morethe Paleolithic period was the evolution of the human species from an apelike creature. Or near human, to true Homo sapiens. This development was exceedingly slow and continued through the three successive divisions of the period. The Lower, Middle, and Upper Paleolithic. The most abundant remains of Paleolithic cultures are a variety of stone tools whose distinct characteristics provide the basis for a system of classification containing several toolmaking traditions or industries. The Lower Palaeolithic Period: The Middle Palaeolith Period: The Upper Palaeolithic Period: This item would have come from the Upper Palaeolithic period and tools such as these broad flaked hand axes are typical of the evolution of the use of hand tools by these primitive people. This particular item has been found in Morocco. By a reliable source(collected in the Sahara) Nice smooth, glossy desert patina. The implement measures 10.5 cm by 6 cm and is truly awe inspiring.

30 nice Sahara Neolithic relics - tools, beads, and 1 paleolithic tool.
This group of 30 Sahara Neolithic relics. PLUS one PALEOLITHIC Aterian tool, is composed of diverse types of relics, which were discovered on ancient habitation sites deep in the western Sahara desert, mostly in the vicinity of northern Mauritania/Mali but also includes two triangular'Eiffel Tower' points from Algeria. This group consist of several types of projectile points from varying periods of the Neolithic era. Including ovate, stemmed, triangular, and uni-facial tool forms. In all there are 20 Neolithic stone projectile points and tools including: two early uni-facial tools(seen at bottom row above beads) and one crescent blade. Also from the Neolithic there are also 10 hard stone beads, drilled bionically as was the method. At the upper right you will see an Aterian tool from the Sahara. This is the earlier known type of stone ... moretool with a stem for hafting. Probably used to serve as a knife/scrapper. This tool is VERY old with weathered features and work around into a semi-circle. The point has been worked into a shape for cutting/scrapping and was probably a hafted scrapper rather than a spear point(possibly re-purposed) This type of tool was used during a wet period in the Sahara 40,000 to 30,000 years ago; this relic is 1 1/2th inches(38 mm) long.The Aterian culture disappeared from the Sahara about 30.0000 years ago. During later wet periods(corresponding to the Ice Ages in northern Europe) later cultures re-populated areas of the Sahara leaving different tool types in the Mesolithic and Neolithic eras. This is one of the more diverse offering of ancient Sahara relics you will find in one lot. The shortest point is 7/8th inch(23 mm) The longest tool is 2 7/16th inches(65 mm) long. Th ese are everyday work tools and adornments used. And lost or discarded by our Neolithic and earlier hunter-gatherer ancestors. They are all honest, authentic relics in good shape, some will exhibit minor ancient damage(as seen in he photograph) Such as dings, usually to tips, tangs, and/or barbs to stemmed poi

excellent Aurignacien straight flint scraper upper paleolithic ca. 35 000BC
The Aurignacien in Europe the first wide spread European culture of modern man. Also known as Homo sapiens sapiens or Cro-Magnon man, is the Aurignacian. At a time of around 35 000 years ago hunters and gatherers were creating what is considered to be the oldest art known to mankind. When one encounters traces of our earliest ancestors in Europe, they are mostly in the form of tools or hunting artifacts made from animal bones, flint, or other such resistant materials. Bones from hunted animals are seldom found, and the discovery of human remains is an extremly rare occasion. The discovery of ice age artworks anywhere is also a very seldom occurrence. Thus, the finds made on the Swabian Alb and in the French Pyrenees have been acknowledged as a true world sensation. Type: excellent flint straight scraper with wonderful dorsal flaking and terrific ... moredorsal edge retouching great patina and small rest of cortex excellent provenance Culture: Aurignacien Period: Upper Paleolithicum Material: flint Measure ca. 43 mm x 30 mm All the artifacts are from my own old collection We guarantee for the authenticity of our artefacts shipping costs: Shipping costs registered international delivery Combined shipping of multiple purchases is possible Please wait for payment instructions.

In the classical ancient world, rubies from Afghanistan, Ceylon, India and Burma were traded in the ancient port cities of the Eastern Mediterranean(often by Phoenicians) and from there traveled throughout Europe. However it is believed that most of the ancient world’s ruby came from Ceylon, where evidence suggests ruby may have been mined for the past 20,000 years.

3 Paleolithic Aterian and 5 Mesolithic Sahara Mesolithic stone tools
Lot Description: This is a group of 3 Aterian tools and 5 Mesolithic unifacial blades found in the Sahara desert. In the region of Morocco. The Aterian tools were used during a wet period in the Sahara 40.000 to 30,000 years ago. The Aterian culture disappeared from the Sahara about 30.0000 years ago as the area became dryer and inhospitable. During later wet periods(corresponding to the Ice Ages in northern Europe) subsequent cultures re-populated areas of the Sahara leaving behind more refined tool types during the later Mesolithic and Neolithic eras. This tools was probably used for cutting and scrapping of hides. Many of the times the tips of these points are worked around rather than coming to a sharp tip necessary for a spear point. It could be that these tools started as a spear point and were later re-purposed into hafted scrappers. ... moreThe tips do show that they were worked into the configuration. Whatever the case they are interesting relics with thick patination and are sand polished from sitting in wind-blown deserts for many thousands of years. Early tools like are very interesting. It was the tools which gave early man the ability to hunt for meat. Meat allowed our brains and intelligence to expand. Contemporary hominids who did not hunt but grazed on plant matter did not evolve and became extinct. It was tool usage which allowed us(Homo Sapien Sapien) emerge and become masters of the world. The unifacial Mesolithic blades were struck from a core at a much later time about 8.000 years ago and were the main tool technology of the Mesolithic and early Neolithic era. The longest Aterian tool is 1 11/16th inches(43 mm) The shortest Aterian tool is 1 9/16th inches(41 mm) The Mesolithic blade/tools range from 1 1/2 inches(38 mm) up to 2 7/16th inches(62 mm) The condition is good. There are ancient dings to a few of these, as can be expected with working tools; most are complete. See picture for details. The color in hand. Is better than the picture indicates.

Profesionally casts resin replicas of 4 giant flint tools from Volgu. France. Size 23, 25, 27, 34 cm. Estimated age 21- 18 000 years, Solutrean period. One of the biggest ever found. Another similar see my other auctions. I will send worldwide. 14 days money back guarantee(excluding shipping) Some info about the Solutrean. Copied from the Internet: THE SOLUTREAN UPPER PALEOLITHIC PERIOD FRANCE. SPAIN& PORTUGAL Estimated 21.000 TO 18,000 YEARS AGO The Solutrean industrial complex appears in western Europe approximately 21.000 years ago. The Solutrean period also brings with it several new and innovative technologies. One of the most important developments during this period involves lithic technology with the production of very skillfully crafted stone tools. These events occur within the last major division of the Old World Paleolithic ... morecalled the Upper Paleolithic which dates from 40,000 to 10,000 years ago. The Neanderthals disappear during this time and the basic ideals of what we believe it is to be a modern human are established. It's a time when ghosts and spirits appear to connect with concepts of an afterlife and art in the form of paintings, engravings and three dimensional sculptures appear. The Solutrean people were skilled hunters who were well adapted to a rigorous cold environment. They lived in rock shelters. Caves and open air sites. In lithic technology, their most significant invention was the ability to manufacture thin bifaces in the form of laurel-leaves. During the Upper Solutrean phase they were producing willow leaf, single shouldered, barbed and concave base projectile points. Although the most important Solutrean site is Laugerie Haute the type site for the Solutrean complex is located at Solutre in eastern France. In 1921 R. A. S. Macalister writes, Close to the village of Solutre near Macon(Saone-et-Loire) there rises a prominent cliff, called the Rock of Solutre, in the shelter of which was established one of the most important Paleolithic stations of all Europe.

13000Y.O: PRECIOUS TWIN ANGLE BURIN 105 mms DANISH STONE AGE PALEOLITHIC FLINT
NORTHERN EUROPEAN STONE AGE ARTIFACTS BY PALATINA AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEED Description Length of this great patinated tool is 105 mms! Occurs in the Palaeolithic Bromme and the early Mesolithic cultures. The Palaeolithic Period(until c. 9300 BC) Denmark was probably inhabited as far back as the last interglacial period some 120.000 years ago, and possibly also in the warmer phases during the last ice age. The oldest existing evidence of human habitation which has been found are the settlement sites of the reindeer hunters from the Bølling period, 12,500-12,000 BC; this was the first warm phase at the end of the last ice age. During the next warm phase, the Allerød period, 11,800-11,000 BC, the first open woodland appeared and reindeer, elk and giant deer became the staple diet for a growing population of hunters. The last cold phase, ... moreYounger Dryas, 11,000-9300 BC, brought the tundra back and again left the stage open for a small population of reindeer hunters. The Bromme culture is a late Upper Paleolithic culture dated to the Allerød Oscillation. A warmer spell between the Elder Dryas and the Younger Dryas, the last cold periods of the late Weichsel Glaciation. At this time, the reindeer was the most important prey, but the Bromme people also hunted moose, wolverine and beaver. The landscape was consequently a combination of taiga and tundra. The culture is named after a settlement at Bromme on western Zealand, and it is known from several settlements in Denmark and Schleswig-Holstein. In Sweden, it is known from the country's earliest known settlement at Segebro, near Malmö. It is charactherized by study lithic flakes that were used for all tools, primarily awls, burins, scrapers and skaftunge arrow heads. No stone axes have been found. The Bromme culture and the Ahrensburg culture are so similar that they it has been proposed that the two cultures should be combined as one and the same under the label Lyngby culture, with the Bromme culture being recognized as an older northern branch of

The United Kingdom only allows valuable items to be sent via Registered Mail. Canada, you are outside the U.S. so the Registered only applies to you also. The base price for Registered Mail for overseas is $13.65, in addition to actual postage costs. Overseas, if you do not want to pay for Registered Mail, please do not bid.

40.000Y.O: LARGE BLADE KNIFE STONE AGE PALEOLITHIC NEANDERTHAL MAN!! MOUSTERIAN
EUROPEAN STONE AGE ARTIFACTS BY PALATINA AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEED Description of the Homo Neanderthalensis- the Neanderthal( Neandertal) men from the Mousterian phase about 40.000- 60.000 years ago. It is a very large blade tool. Most likely a knife or a side edged scraper. Length of this terrific white patinized artifact is 112 mms! From a great Southern German collection! The Mousterian industry appeared around 200.000 years ago and persisted until about 40,000 years ago, in much the same areas of Europe, the Near East and Africa where Acheulean tools appear. In Europe these tools are most closely associated with Homo neanderthalensis, but elsewhere were made by both Neanderthals and early Homo sapiens. Mousterian tools required a preliminary shaping of the stone core from which the actual blade is struck off. The toolmakers either shaped ... morea rock into a rounded surface before striking off the raised area as a wedge shaped flake(see photo at left) or they shaped the core as a long prism of stone before striking off triangular flakes from its length, like slices from a baguette. Because Mousterian tools were conceived as refinements on a few distinct core shapes, the whole process of making tools had standardized into explicit stages(basic core stone, rough blank, refined final tool) Variations in tool shapes could be produced by changes in the procedures at any stage. A consistent manufacturing goal was to increase as much as possible the cutting area on each blade. Though this made the toolmaking process more labor intensive, it also meant the edges of the tools could be reshaped or sharpened as they dulled, so that each tool lasted longer. The whole toolmaking industry had adapted to get the maximum utility from the labor invested at each step. Tool forms in the Mousterian industry display a wide range of specialized shapes. Cutting tools include notched flakes, denticulate(serrated) flakes, and flake blades similar to Upper Paleolithic tools. Points appear that seem designed for use in spears or lance

Nice Paleolithic Acheulean Early Man Axe, Tool, Prehistoric African Artifact
LOWER PALEOLITHIC(ACHEULEAN) EARLY MAN HAND AXE. The term Paleolithic was coined by archaeologist John Lubbock in 1865. It derives from the Greek palaios(old) and lithos(stone) Meaning O ld Stone Age, compared to the later Neo-lithic or New Stone Age. The Paleolithic Era is divided into 3 ages. The Upper(10,000 to 50,000 BP) Middle( 30.000 to 300,000 BP) and Lower(up to 2 million years ago) It is in the Lower Paleolithic that we find the Acheulean Tradition, which covers a time span of from 100.000 to over 1 million years before our present time. Surviving artifacts of this period are known as paleoliths and were manufactured by early hominids. From Homo habilis and Homo erectus to early Neanderthal, all predecessors of our species, Homo sapiens. To hold one of these very ancient artifacts in your hand, to know that it was made hundreds of ... morethousands of years ago by a primitive human species to aid in daily survival, is truly a humbling experience and a direct connection to our far distant past.
