This is a museum replica brooch or pin made by Israel Museum Products, which is a subsidiary of the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, which is ranked among the leading museums in the world. Their items are sold in museums around the world, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. It is signed on the back with the letters I.M.P. It measures approximately 1 inches by 2 inches.
The brooch is a copy of an ancient design of a double headed Ibex, a Gazelle like animal standing on top of a double bladed mace tool. The original item was most likely a scepter or pole top that was used in ceremonial rituals. The original item was found in 1961 by archaeologists in the Judean desert in what is now known as the “Cave of Treasures”. There is a small picture insert of the original item and you can view the article regarding the treasures on timesofisrael.com/unexpected-beauty-and-unanswered-riddles-from-a-desert-cave.
This brooch is in great vintage condition as you can see by the enlarged photographs. The scratches and marks on the brooch are meant to be there, they were on the original piece from which this replica was created. Please look at the photos as they are part of the description and show the details better than I can describe.
This will be sent 1st Class Mail with Tracking/Delivery Confirmation and Insurance. For more information about me and booth policies, click on Starfisher's Stars at the top of this page, it will take you to the main page of my booth. Thanks for visiting!
