Central Asia, Bronze Age, ca. 4th to early 1st millennium BCE. Very fine and very early set of three carved stone seals. Two of the seals are among a type of very early geometric styles and depict simple cross-hatched designs. One features a flat table with small suspension loop upon its reverse, the other is almost cylindrical and is drilled with a series of small holes on its sides and base. The final is of a black scaraboid form drilled lengthwise for suspension featuring a winged horse - first depicted in Sumerian art before 2000 BCE. A very fine example! Size of largest: 1" H (2.5 cm)
