Description

Late 3rd-early 2nd millennium BC. A mixed group of three bronze seals and a ring, including a discoid seal accompanied by a typed and signed note by the late W.G. Lambert, Professor of Assyriology at the University of Birmingham, 1970-1993, which states: 'Stamp Seal of Bronze, 50 x 48 x 48mm. This is round, with flat face and convex back, in the centre of which is a stout stalk handle ending in a pierced oval loop, now worn. The design on the face is done in raised lines and consists of a central shape something of a heart-shape, beneath it three circles, the central one divided into three parts, the other into four quarters, and above the heart-shape two spirals forming rough circles. There are filling strokes between each pair of outer circles starting from the outer edge. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2100-1800 B.C. It is generally in very good condition, a little chipping of the outer edge and wear of the handle being the only defects. the metal is sound.'; the rest comprising: ring with large discoid bezel with tightly scalloped edge, central design with tall plant with four curved branches to each side and circle to the apex and below the bottom leaves, lower part with two sections filled with angled design, large hoop to the reverse; one a discoid seal with scalloped edge, standing quadruped, possibly a lion, with curved tail and head turned back with open jaw, inverted U-shape handle to the reverse.' 248 grams, 48-59 (2-2 1/4"). The Signo collection, the property of a West London businessman, formed in the late 1980s-early 1990s; collection numbers U-39, Y-271, Y-903, academically researched and catalogued by the late Professor Lambert in the early 1990s.
