Inanna Eye Vermeil Necklace
Size Information
Art jewelry makes a unique gift for her.
The watchful eye defining our striking pendant necklace is borrowed from a lapis lazuli and shell inlay (ca. 2600–2500 BCE) in the Museum’s Ancient Near Eastern Art collection that probably enhanced the look of a votive sculpture dedicated to Inanna, the Sumerian goddess of love, abundance, and war, as it was found at her temple in Nippur (now Iraq). Gaze was an important element of Sumerian statuary, emphasized by such additions to white stone forms.
