Shamash Pendant with Authentic Ancient Near Eastern Agate Seal in 925 Silver & Rough Ruby in 9K Gold

The Shamash pendant from the German Kabirski Artifact Collection holds an authentic ancient Near Eastern seal stone, carved in Agate, depicting a bearded figure with radiating lines extending from their head, possibly representing a deity, ruler, or celestial being. Set in oxidized 925 silver, the pendant is accented with a rough Ruby in a 9K gold frame, a stone symbolizing energy, power, and divine fire.

The name Shamash is inspired by the Mesopotamian sun god, associated with justice, truth, and cosmic balance. The radiating lines around the figure’s head suggest a connection to solar imagery, a motif often seen in representations of Shamash or other deities linked to celestial power and illumination. In the ancient Near East, including Sumer, Akkad, and Babylon, seals featuring divine or noble figures were used for authentication, protection, and invoking divine favor.

Dating from the Achaemenid or Mesopotamian periods (circa 5th century BCE – 2nd century CE), this one-of-a-kind pendant transforms an artifact of power into a wearable symbol of light, wisdom, and ancient heritage.
