MJ2509
Ce collier finement monté se compose d'une alternance de perles facettées de lapis-lazuli bleu vif et de cornaline rouge-orange intense, entrecoupées de perles d'espacement en or côtelées, témoignant d'un savoir-faire exceptionnel. La pièce maîtresse est une perle d'or plus grande de forme cylindrique, en repoussé, ornée d'éléments décoratifs linéaires.
La symétrie et les matériaux suggèrent un statut cérémoniel ou élite, car le lapis-lazuli et la cornaline étaient considérés comme des pierres protectrices et sacrées dans la culture babylonienne antique. L'utilisation de perles d'espacement en or ajoute à la fois élégance et statut, indiquant un propriétaire de haut rang ou une offrande votive.
