Description: This captivating intaglio tile is crafted from deep-blue lapis lazuli, featuring intricate engravings reminiscent of ancient Middle Eastern and South Asian artistry. The tile is adorned with an array of meticulously carved figures and symbols, and protective motifs. Central to the design is a standing male figure wielding a trident-like weapon, facing a seated figure who appears to hold a ceremonial staff, suggesting a scene of reverence or power. Surrounding these figures are smaller carvings of animals, including scorpions aligned along the base of the tile—symbols that may hold astrological or protective significance. The outer edges and top are encircled with an ancient form of script, adding a layer of mystique and historical intrigue. The inscription, though undeciphered, suggests an esoteric language or code that could point to early forms of writing from ancient civilizations. The lapis lazuli stone, known for its rich color and revered since antiquity, enhances the piece’s aura of prestige and mystery. This tile would make an exceptional addition to any collection, offering a glimpse into the artistry and symbolism of early cultures. It’s a fascinating piece for enthusiasts of ancient history, mysticism, and cultural artifacts.
