A Timeless Connection to the Past

These three stunning bronze arrowheads, dating back to around 800 BC, offer a rare glimpse into the craftsmanship and ingenuity of the ancient Luristan culture. Each arrowhead is a finely crafted example of Luristan’s legendary skill in metallurgy, forged from durable bronze that has withstood the test of time. The arrowheads are displayed on a simple, yet elegant, wooden stand, allowing these ancient weapons to be admired both for their functionality and their beauty.

The Luristan people, known for their advanced metalworking, designed these arrowheads to be both practical and effective in combat. With their sharp, pointed tips and aerodynamic shape, they were intended for use in battle, capable of piercing armor and striking down enemies with precision. The combination of form and function in these pieces demonstrates the Luristans' deep understanding of both warfare and craftsmanship.

The bronze of these arrowheads has remained in excellent condition, and their sleek, purposeful design reflects the high level of artistry and skill that was a hallmark of the Luristan civilization. Together on the stand, these three arrowheads form a powerful visual representation of the ancient warriors who once relied on such tools for survival in a time of constant conflict.

This collection of three bronze arrowheads is a remarkable example of ancient weaponry, preserved in great condition, and serves as a tangible link to a civilization that flourished over 2,800 years ago in what is now western Iran. Perfect for any collector or history enthusiast, this set brings the ancient world to life, allowing us to connect with the past in a truly meaningful way.
