Dear valued customers,
more than 40 ancient objects have been added to our online shop within the last days. You will find many bronze artefacts from Roman times, an interesting collection of ancient glass and an extremely nice group of silver fingerrings from Late Antiquity to late Byzantine times. Enjoy!Dear valued customers,
As of today our online shop features three Western Asiatic cylinder seals. They date between Uruk period and Old Akkadian and boost typical motives. The older seal stands out by its high degree of abstraction. Today we would label it abstract art. The scene on the younger seal is naturalistic. The balance and detail of the scene is an impressive demonstration of the Akkadian seal engraver's skill.
