| The price, stone type, longest millimeter size, and inventory number for each of the delightful ancient intaglio ring seals in this group of ten [100.57(AA, AC, AE, AF, AG, AS, BD) and 100.58(W, AI, AU)HD] are all shown on the individual seal’s own photo. Found in Western Afghanistan during the Russian occupation, each of the seals is in very good condition and can be easily set in a contemporary silver or gold ring mount. Attributed to the Sassanian Empire, c.300-600AD, the tiny seals represent truly amazing examples of the ancient gem cutter’s skill. Stone types in this group include agate, carnelian, lapis, onyx, and soapstone. Prices range from $75 to $125. As an ancient miniature art form illustrating zoomorphic and anthropomorphic themes, the seals range in size from 7mm to 12mm. If an item has been sold, it will be so-marked on its photo. A purchase comes with a small display card, a map of Afghanistan highlighting the general area in which the seals were found, and a certificate guaranteeing authenticity. Please refer to any seal of interest by first the Trocadero Number and then the Inventory Number shown on the photo for the seal.
