Item Details
Description
Presenting a set of four spindle whorls from the 9th to 10th century AD, excavated in Nishapur, Iran. These pieces range in size from 1.4 to 1.7 cm in diameter, showcasing the fine material of ivories and bone, once adorned with a rose surface color that has gracefully worn off in places. The whorls carry the weight of history, their surfaces telling a story of the skilled artisans and the bustling textile industry of the time. The wear on these objects enhances their charm, providing a tactile connection to the hands that once used them daily. This collection is an exceptional representation of the period's craftsmanship and would be a distinguished addition to any collection of ancient tools or Iranian antiquities.
