About the Item
A superb and rare Luristan bronze bird-headed axe from the Early Iron Age, circa 1200–700 BCE
Western Iran (Ancient Luristan)
This finely cast bronze bird axe showcases the metallurgical and artistic expertise of the Luristan culture during the early Iron Age. Luristan bronzes—including weapons, horse trappings, and ritual objects—are renowned for their intricate designs and abstract symbolism, often depicting animals, deities, and geometric motifs. These objects likely held ritual or symbolic significance, reflecting the spiritual and social values of ancient western Iran. Very superb condition, aesthetics and very rare
