A large and well-preserved tanged bronze sword, c. 2nd. millenium BC.
The style with the thick mid-rib and two rivets in the corner of the blade is known from the Assyrian period, and the present specimen provincially made around the lands of the Caspian Sea. On this specimen one rivet is still remaining. Very attractive and impressive!
Size: 45 cm.
Condition: Choice - very fine green patina and good metal quality - very few losses and roghness to the edge.
Ex. Danish private Collection, aquired at the Copenhagen antiques market in the 1990s.
