Item Details
Description
This artifact is a finely crafted spindle whorl, hailing from the Central Asian region during the 6th to 8th century AD. Measuring approximately 6.5 cm (2.56 inches) in diameter and 2.5 cm (0.98 inches) in height, and weighing 63 grams, this object showcases the remarkable skill of ancient artisans in creating functional yet decorative tools. Made of stone, the whorl is adorned with a ten-petal rosette-like design, indicative of the region's aesthetic preferences and the cultural significance of textile production in that era. This piece not only embodies the utilitarian aspects of daily life in ancient Central Asia but also reflects the region's artistic expression.
