EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning piece of ancient art - the Gold Copper Alloy Spiral Lion-Head Terminal. Dating back to the 5th century BC, this classical artifact originates from Cyprus and is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of that era. Measuring 25 cm in length, this gold-plated spiral earring features an ornate animal head terminal in the form of a majestic lion. Such terminals were frequently found in Cypriot tombs during the Classical period and were also seen on terracotta and limestone votive statues. The intricate design of this accessory illustrates the archaic customs where both men and women adorned themselves with elaborate ornaments. The large holes pierced through earlobes allowed for easy attachment, making it a popular choice among fashion-conscious individuals of that time. Artokoloro's expert photography captures every minute detail, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its aesthetic beauty. This print transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into an era where such lavish adornments were treasured possessions.
