Luristan bronze ax

"Bronze Luristan ax head with curved blade, 1000 BC". They are called Luristan bronzes since it is there where large quantities have been found, made in the Iron Age, and surely assimilated with the Persian Empire. The typologies are very varied, from weapons, tools, accessories for horses, or as in this case, a banner, with a cylindrical structure and its own support. This flat-bladed ax is loaded with the force of this weapon.

Very good condition.

Provenance: English private collection, acquired before 1996.

Bibliography: Antiquities, London. Christie''s. 10/01/2014. Page 97, number 140. 20cm
