Ancient Sasanian Chalcedony Lamassu Stamp Seal, 3rd-7th Century AD

Item Details

Description

This exceptional Sasanian stamp seal, intricately carved from chalcedony, features the high-relief image of a lamassu, a winged human-headed bull, emblematic of protective spirits in ancient Mesopotamian religion. The seal, measuring 22x15 mm (approximately 0.87x0.59 inches), is a testament to the artistry and spiritual symbolism of the Sasanian era. The lamassu, regarded as a guardian figure, was often placed at entrances of cities and palaces to ward off evil. This seal's presence in a collection offers not just a piece of ancient art but a relic of the mystical beliefs that shaped a civilization.
