Western Asiatic Black Stone Mould for Female Figure
2000-1700 B.C.Sold for (Inc. bp): £390
Tongue-shaped mould fragment with a recessed female figure on the upper face, accompanied by a copy of an old scholarly note, typed and signed by W.G. Lambert, late Professor of Assyriology, University of Birmingham, 1970-1993, which states: 'Upper Portion of Mould in Black Stone, 39 x 29 x 10 mm. This mould served to make metal figurines of a nude female figure. It is preserved from the thighs up, and is in very good state of preservation. The figure is worked in much detail: the hair is carefully arranged on the head, she has large earrings, five strings of beads around the neck; she holds her hands under her breasts, and the pubic hair is carefully marked. The fine quality, detailed work of this piece is most unusual. It dates to c. 1200 - 1700 B.C and comes from Iraq or an adjacent area.' 23.43 grams, 38 mm
