- Lot Description
Ancient Near East, Northwestern Iran and Northeastern Turkey, Luristan, ca. 1000 to 600 BCE. A lovely ensemble of 3 leaded bronze figurines: a rhyton, a ram pendant, and a stamp. The miniature rhyton displays the head, neck, and front legs of a ram with a broad snout, pointed ears, and large, curved horns. Its back-end flares out to form a conical vessel. Next, the ram pendant stands on 4 slender legs and exhibits a thin flank, a perky tail, an elongated neck, prominent ears, a round snout, bulging eyes, and tall horns. A suspension loop on its back allows it to be wearable as a pendant. Last, the stamp also presents a suspension loop for wearability at the top flanked by a pair of ram or antelope heads that jut outwards. The tubular handle of the stamp flares outward to a square face, adorned with 5 target motifs. Size (of largest - rhyton): 1.6" L x 1.5" H (4.1 cm x 3.8 cm)
Provenance: private Southern California collection, USA, bestowed 2006; ex-J. Malter collection, Los Angeles, California, USA, acquired before 2006
