Embrace the legacy of the ancient Silk Road with this Bactrian Gold Earring from the Kushan Empire, adorned with malachite inlay. This elegant piece, reflecting the cosmopolitan culture of its era, comes with a rich provenance and a certificate of authenticity.
Step into the opulent world of the Kushan Empire with this Bactrian Solid Gold Earring, a luxurious testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of a culture that thrived in a region known for its wealth and cross-cultural exchanges. Made from high-karat gold, this earring captures the essence of Kushan jewelry design with its delicate form and the striking contrast provided by the central malachite inlay.
Gold, valued for its luster and malleability, was often used in the creation of jewelry for the elite in ancient Bactria, a civilization enriched by trade along the great Silk Road. This earring, measuring 28mm in height and weighing 1.098 grams, reflects the affluence and aesthetic sensibilities of its time. The presence of malachite, a stone cherished for its vibrant green hues, also hints at the extensive trade networks of the Kushans, as malachite was not locally sourced but imported.
Though the earring shows signs of time with some filigree elements missing, its beauty remains undiminished. The condition is still good, and its rarity is accentuated by the fact that such intricate pieces are seldom found intact. This particular earring, with its unique design and historical context, would have been a symbol of status and possibly believed to carry protective properties for the wearer.
Its authenticity is certified, ensuring its value and integrity. The piece's former inclusion in the A&O Art Gallery collection in the UK and its collection date prior to 1990 enhance its desirability among collectors and historians alike.
VISUAL ANALYSIS REPORT:
The Bactrian gold earring presents with a simple yet elegant form, typical of the jewelry from the Kushan Empire. The malachite inlay is particularly notable, as it suggests the earring was not merely decorative but also perhaps held amuletic or talismanic significance. The green of the malachite stands in stark contrast to the gold, a combination that was likely intended to catch the eye and display wealth. The craftsmanship, while showing signs of wear, still clearly conveys the skill of ancient goldsmiths. Despite the loss of some filigree, the remaining design elements suggest that this piece was part of a refined tradition of jewelry-making, and it would have been a prized possession in its time.
