Dimensions: W. 5 1/4 in. (13.3 cm); Wt. 3.3 oz. (93.6 g). Date: 9th-11th century.If the Vikings are mostly known for being talented sailors, one may forget they were also horse riders, and as in all the Germanic cultures, horses had great importance in their society, in both its social and religious aspects. Equestrian equipment, like stirrups, spurs and bits, are regularly found in Viking burials, among the goods warriors wanted to bring with them to the afterlife. The elite would sometimes even be accompanied by sacrificed horses, a meaningful practice at that time, considering the high economic value of horses.The snaffle bit is the simplest type of horse bit, and has an effect on the bars (part of the horses' jaw without teeth) and the corners of the lips. The rings on the sides would serve to hang the bit on the headstall, attach the reins, as well as hold the mouthpiece in place. The clover-shapep ring is a later addition.This bit is said to have Ring early 19th century possibly Portuguese. Ring 206863Drawer Pull. Dimensions: Diam. 2 1/8 in. (5.4 cm). Date: 1810-60.

The nutshell of the coco-de-mer palm is native to islands in the Indian Ocean; such shells probably washed up on the southern shores of Iran. While Sufis disavow most material objects, the kashkul is one of the very few items that a dervish would keep on his person. This example could have functioned as a vessel for collecting alms, or a container for holding food and drink. An empty kashkul can also be interpreted as a metaphor for the voiding of the ego, which is required of a dervish before he can nourish himself with divine knowledge. Though such objects were originally created to be functional, later examples, such as this one, were fabricated and collected solely for their aesthetic merit..

Parthian Interaction between Mesopotamia and the Greco-Roman worldinitiated by the conquests of Alexander the Great, continuing with the influx of Greek merchants and settlers in the Seleucid period and Roman settlements in the area during the Parthian periodhad a considerable impact on the style, subject matter, and technique of Mesopotamian art of the first millennium A.D.This exquisitely crafted earring consists of an Eros-like, winged male youth with long curly hair partly drawn up in a topknot above his forehead.
