Egyptian Greek Roman Persian Antiques PDF Download

Excerpt from Rare and Beautiful Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Persian Antiques: Collected by Azeez Khayat, Expert, in Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Greece Among the glass there are many specimens of rare and exquisite beauty and very unusual forms. The collection is rich in objects for household adorn ment, as well as for personal adornment, such as the Egyptian necklaces, some of which are of unique beauty and unobtainable anywhere at any price. Several of them are strung after the way they were found. The majority of the objects in the collection have come from the Custom House direct to The Anderson Galleries, and they have not been shown or offered at sale before. Every article in the collection is guaranteed to be genuine and as represented in the catalogue. Among the various objects there are a few that are slightly imperfect, but this could not be helped considering their age and the fact that they have been dug up from ruins and buried tombs, temples and houses. It would take a volume to describe fully all the articles in the collection, therefore the catalogue -descriptions are brief; but the full history of any object will be cheerfully given upon request.
