Luristan Bronze Spearhead Blade

Object Description

A fine Luristan spearhead blade cast from bronze featuring a triangular shaped blade with rounded points. The thin, ridged midrib runs centrally down the blade and leads to the tapered tang. A beautiful chalk-like turquoise patina covers the entire piece, except for the abraded areas which are of a darker green or golden colour which are consistent with the age of this weapon.

Date: Circa 1200 – 600 BC

Object Condition

Very good condition with minor abraded areas and scratches to the surface throughout, as well as occasional chips to the blade. Green patina covers the entire piece.
