Description

Late 3rd-2nd millennium BC. A mixed group of ten bronze seals including five accompanied by typed and signed notes by the late W.G. Lambert, Professor of Assyriology at the University of Birmingham, 1970-1993, which states: T-764) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 23 x 24 x 28.5 mm. This has a roughly round flat face, and sides which rise steeply and flare inwards to an oval pierced loop. The design on the face shows a standing horned quadruped with wings with filling motifs around. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2200-1800 B.C. It is generally in very good condition, only the loop is worn, and there is a little scratching of the face.'; T-501) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 24 x 24 x 21 mm. This has a round, flat face and a convex back leading up to a short stalk handle surmounted by an oval pierced top. The design on the face is a pattern of curving linear strokes, apparently entirely abstract. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2200-1800 B.C. The comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2200-1800 B.C. The handle and the outer rim of the face are worn down, otherwise the seal is in good condition and the metal is well preserved.'; U-565) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 26 x 24 x 32 mm. This has a round flat face and a convex back which rises to a stalk handle, now encased in incrustation, which could be removed. The design on the face is achieved with raised lines and consists of a kind of S in the middle and to each side a linear motif, but different on each side. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2100-1800 B.C. The edges of the seal are worn off, but most of the design remains.'; U-495) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 18 x 16 x 20 mm. This has a roughly round face and round back, which is slightly convex and in the centre there is a stalk handle with pierced suspension loop on the end. The design, which is achieved with raised lines, consists of three curving lines based on the outer rim. This comes from west central Asia and dates to c. 2100-1800 B.C. The edge is worn off at one point and there is a hole in the seal due to a defect in the manufacture, otherwise it is in fair condition.'; B-25) 'A Stamp Seal of Bronze, 32 x 33 x 35 mm. This has a flat face, with no outer rim, but with design in raised metal strips. The solid back rises to a pierced knob handle. The design consists of a trefoil in the middle with a support for each of the three arms, and around it on the edge three single loops with three double loops between them. The seal comes from the Bronze Age of west central Asia, and probably dates to c.2000-1500 B.C. There is slight damage to the edges, and the hole is worn, but despite incrustation which could be removed, the metal is in very good condition. The double loops could be seen as standing quadrupeds.' 306 grams total, 16-33mm (1/2 - 1 1/4"). The Signo collection, the property of a West London businessman, formed in the late 1980s-early 1990s; academically researched and catalogued by the late Professor Lambert in the early 1990s. [10]
