Stone Age Reliquary
9.5 x 10 x 10.5 cm
Stone
Introducing “Stone Age Reliquary”, a striking mini sculpture that embodies the mystique of ancient artifacts. Two pieces of sandstone are cupped together, wearing a headdress of agate, jasper, and obsidian stones, as though crowned with nature’s jewels. The sandstone is balanced on a base of quartz, adding stability and elegance to the piece.
Reminiscent of the treasures I encountered in the vault of the Russian History Museum in Moscow, this sculpture brings to mind a Stone Age reliquary basket—precious and timeless. The carefully selected stones, with their varied textures and rich colours, tell a story of ancient beauty and reverence.
Perfect for collectors who are drawn to the intersection of history, nature, and minimalist design, this piece is a beautiful tribute to the raw elegance of our Earth.
