Paperback. Condición: Very Good. These beautiful furniture inlays, carved in the 1st century AD, were discovered in the 1930s by French archaeologists in the ancient city of Begram, north of Kabul. In two strong-rooms hidden at the heart of a palace in the Kushan summer capital of Kapisi lay a wealth of luxury goods: bronzes and glassware from Roman Egypt, lacquered bowls from China and over a thousand ivory and bone inlays that were originally attached to wooden furniture. This spectacular collection of objects probably represents the hoarded treasure of the Kushan rulers and they are some of the most important antiquities ever discovered in Afghanistan. The ivories feature an array of motifs, styles and themes: young women with elaborate jewellery and hairstyles are seen dancing or simply lounging sensuously in their private quarters; around them, mythical beasts, wildlife and foliage are rendered in exquisite detail. The ivories are Indian, but controversy over their exact origin and date continues, and the fragile nature of ivory means that very few pieces like these have been found to provide close comparison. Feared lost for many years after the outbreak of war in Afghanistan in 1979, these ivories have at last been recovered and, restored to their former glory, will be returning to Kabul. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

paperback. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
