€ 2400
1st century A.D.
Bronze with lustrous patina. Bust of a young Nubian emerging from a chalice of leaves. The long locks of his curly hair are well arranged in tiers.

Dimension: height 6,2 cm, width 4 cm
Condition: One of the loops broken off in antiquity, lid and flat metal sheet bottom missing. Apart from that intact and extremely well preserved.
Provenance: Austrian private collection, Vienna, since the 1980s.
