Luristan Bronze Short Sword w/ Lunate Pommel

Item Details

Description

Ancient Near East, Northwestern Iran, Luristan culture, ca. 1000 to 600 BCE. A cast-bronze short sword with a sturdy blade bearing sharpened edges and a raised midrib on both sides. The grooves in the handle enabled the warrior to better grip the weapon while the recessed lunate pommel was perhaps filled with a decorative inlay. Even layers of green patina have developed over the millennia across the weapon's surfaces while eye-catching azurite patina is visible within the pommel. Size: 20.6" L x 2.8" W x 1.7" H (52.3 cm x 7.1 cm x 4.3 cm)

Provenance: private Constance McCormick Fearing estate, Montecito, California, USA, acquired before 2004

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.

Condition

Small fissure near one side of handle base, with minor repatination to areas near blade tip as well as along midsection of handle. Very slight bending to overall form, with petite nicks and light abrasions to blade, and earthen deposits within some handle socket holes, otherwise in great condition. Wonderful green patina throughout, and great azurite patina within the pommel recess.
