On offer here is a Neo Assyrian cylinder seal replica and the impression it creates.
Made of a limestone and quartzite composition stone they both have aged patinas with a light polish.
This wrestling scene shows a central hero in combat with a winged bull and an early depiction of a griffin.
Very fine details can be seen in the impression with particular attention given to the wings of the animals and the pattern of the tunic worn by the hero.
The cylinder itself is typically hollow to allow for a smooth rod to aid the rolling technique, or to be worn as part of a necklace.
*As each item is handmade, slight colour variations may occur.
