ATTRIBUTION: Ancient China. Qing Dynasty, 19th Century. SIZE/MEASUREMENTS: Length: 82 millimeters(3 1/4 inches) Breadth: 62 millimeters(2 1/2 inches) Height: 33 millimeters(1 1/3 inches) CONDITION: Exceptionally good. Exceptionally well preserved. A little wear consistent with any household item which is 150 or 200 years old. Some light glaze crackling/crazing typical of ancient porcelain and ceramics. Not flawless, but certainly in an excellent state of preservation. DETAIL: A very cute. Splendidly preserved traditional blue and white porcelain ink well so wonderfully characteristic of late Ming/early Qing Dynasty artwork. As you can see the vessel bears a very cute and dainty floral pattern on the upper surface. The glaze is entirely intact, vibrant cobalt blue, and the condition of the ink well is virtually perfect. There is some"crazing" or"crackling" of the porcelain glaze, but this is entirely normal and is anticipated in antique/ancient ceramics and porcelain pieces. It is regarded a testament to the age of the piece, and no generally held to be detrimental unless it is excessive and to the point where the glaze is flaking off. As you can see here, the glaze is entirely intact and in wonderful condition. There is of course a little minor wear- we're not saying it is as when new. But this is as good as one can reasonably expect of a porcelain ink well somewhere around 150 or 200 years old. It's not perfect, but it is about as close to perfect as you will ordinarily find of an authentic 19th century desk accoutrement bottle like this, and there are no repairs. Of course realistically one would expect some blemishes after being used for several hundred years, and there a

Very Beautiful, ... moreLarge, Genuine 16th-17th Century Ming Dynasty Chinese“Famille Rose” Glazed Ceramic Plate. Perfect as a Candy or Change Dish for Work or Home. CLASSIFICATION: Famille Rose Style Ceramic Footed Plate. ATTRIBUTION: Ancient China. Ming Dynasty, Between 1600 and 1700 A.D. SIZE/MEASUREMENTS: Diameter: 111 millimeters(4 3/8 inches) at top rim; 63 millimeters(2 1/2 inches) at base. Height: 34 millimeters(1 3/8 inches) CONDITION: Fairly good. A couple of small rim chips, a little porcelain chipping inside the bowl. A little wear consistent with any household item which is between three and four centuries in age. The typical blemishes of hand production(warts and dimples, zits and pits) Not flawless, but certainly in an excellent state of preservation. DETAIL: A fairly well preserved. Footed“famille rose” porcelain plate so wonderfully characteristic of the very popular export Ming and Qing Dynasty porcelain china. The particular style was extremely popular both in England and Europe throughout the 16th to 19th centuries, as well as in the USA during the 1800’s. This piece is a wonderful example of this very famous produce. The glaze is mostly intact, though there’s a little porcelain chipping to the surface of the plate, as well as a few rim chips(visible in the photographs) However considering its age, it’s actually in pretty good condition(you or I should look so good when we’re four centuries old! There is of course a collection of minor scuffs, marks, dings, etc. all virtually undetectable. However this is really about as good as one can reasonably expect of a household artifact which was originally produced in the 1600’s. It’s not perfect, but it is in reasonably nice condition, and there are no repairs. Of course realistically one would expect some blemishes of a porcelain plate produced four hundred years ago.

CLASSIFICATION: Ancient Byzantine Macedonia Engraved Silver Ring. ATTRIBUTION: Eastern Roman Empire(Constantinople) Twelfth Century A.D. SIZE/MEASUREMENTS: Fits ring size 7 1/4(U.S. Diameter: 19mm x 18 1/2mm(outer dimensions) 18mm x 17mm(inner diameter) Bezel: 12mm(height) 12mm(breadth) Fixed Width 2 1/2mm Band. Weight: 2.20 grams. CONDITION: Very Good! Completely intact. Moderately light wear evidenced consistent with ancient usage. Very faint porosity(surface pitting caused by contact with earth while buried) Professionally conserved. DETAIL: A very well preserved silver ring circa 9th or 10th century A.D. As you can see. The ring is very handsome and elegant in design. The"bezel" or face of the ring bears a very distinct abstract design, however though we’ve scrutinized the engraved design carefully, we’re unable to determine what it represents. Some believe it to be the abstract representation of a shaman’s face. However it seems most likely to be the abstract representation of two stags with antlers locked in combat. Given the cultural popularity of such depictions in the region during the ancient and medieval world, this seems most likely. This is a fairly light weight ring, more like a contemporary ring than the thick and lumpy rings often produced during the early years of the Roman Empire. It is a very handsome and complex design, and probably was a very significant personal possession of whomsoever originally owned the ring. There are unmistakable indications that the ring was worn fairly often by whomsoever the ancient owner was. But the ring is in no way“worn out” Before expressing dismay over the fact that the ring evidences some wear, you must keep in mind that the ring was produced by an artisan and sold to a patron or consumer wit

$3.99 Shipping Location: Lummi Island,WA,USA TRANSLATE Arabic Chinese French German Greek Indonesian Italian Hindi Japanese Korean Swedish Portuguese Russian Spanish Ancient Egyptian Literature: ... moreA Book of Readings by Miriam Lichtheim– Volume II: The New Kingdom. NOTE: We have 75.000 books in our library, almost 10,000 different titles. Odds are we have other copies of this same title in varying conditions, some less expensive, some better condition. We might also have different editions as well(some paperback, some hardcover, oftentimes international editions) If you don’t see what you want, please contact us and ask. We’re happy to send you a summary of the differing conditions and prices we may have for the same title. DESCRIPTION: Softcover: 239 pages. Publisher: University of California Press; 1976) This second volume of new translations is designed along the lines of the first Volume. In keeping with the ancient view. It defines literature broadly so as to include monumental inscriptions carved on stone and literary texts written on papyrus. Where the first volume outlined the gradual creation of Egyptian literary genres in the course of many centuries, the present one shows the elaboration of the genres within a single cultural period, and in a relatively short span of time. The literary production of the New Kingdom was much larger than that of the earlier periods. Hence even a whole volume devoted to it can do no more than focus on the highlights. Moreover. In the New Kingdom both the monumental inscriptions and the papyrus texts usually ran to greater length than their Middle Kingdom counterparts. The selection made from the vast quantity of stone-carved inscriptions contains famous pieces along with some less renowned ones. Together they illustrate the principal topics that were deemed appropriate to the always functional monumental context. Similarly the works written on papyrus have been selected to show the variety of themes and forms. And to single out those compositions that we outstanding in their day and have retained a timeless inte

$4.99 Shipping Location: Lummi Island,WA,USA The Lost Civilizations Of The Stone Age by Richard Rudgley. DESCRIPTION: Hardback with Dust Jacket: 310 pages. Publisher: The Free Press; 1999) ISBN: ... more0684855801. This title challenges the notion that modern history is far superior to the events and accomplishments of early civilization. The author. A scholar of prehistoric art, religion, and technology, argues that the occurrences and characteristics of later human history have their origins in prehistory. He argues that the system of constellations in the night sky, the use of calculating instruments, and artistic representations all prove that the people of the Stone Age were anything but primitive. Perhaps after reading this insightful book, the reader will come away with an entirely different take on prehistory and its legacy. CONDITION: New hardcover w/dustjacket. Free Press(1998) 320 pages. Unblemished except VERY slight edge and corner shelf wear to dustjacket and covers. Dustjacket also exhibits very mild rubbing(dustjacket is high-gloss black and so shows rub marks very easily. Even merely from being shelved between other books) Very minimal shelf wear consistent with new stock from an open-shelf book store(such as Barnes& Noble, etc. Pages are pristine; clean, crisp, unmarked, unmutilated, tightly bound, unambiguously unread. PLEASE SEE IMAGES BELOW FOR JACKET DESCRIPTION(S) AND FOR PAGES OF PICTURES FROM INSIDE OF BOOK. PLEASE SEE PUBLISHER. PROFESSIONAL, AND READER REVIEWS BELOW. PUBLISHER REVIEW: REVIEW: Award-winning British scholar takes a provocative and engaging look at the Stone Age. Challenging some of the most basic assumptions about the beginnings of civilization, and offering a fascinating and rich introduction to a lost world. Line drawings and photo illustrations. Richard Rudgley is an Oxford-trained scholar of Stone Age art, religion and technology. PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS: REVIEW: Ever wonder what it was like to be a caveman? Whether you are a dentist. Sculptor or accountant, you may have more in common with our Stone Age ancest
