provenance
black glass | weight 5,64gr. | Ø ca. 27mm.
On the obverse a stamped Islamic legend in 3 lines Glass weight are, almost without exception, coin weights. While some bear busts and inscriptions, by far the majority bear only monograms or text inscriptions. They were widely used in the 6th and 12th centuries in the Byzantine and Islamic world. The colour of the glass used is, not surprisingly, the same colour as that used in glass vessels. The basic colours are therefore: blue, blue-green, green, black and colourless. The survivability rate of glass weights must have been quite low due to their fragility, and attractive pieces such as this one are, as a result, quite rare.
provenance: Dutch private collection. Acquired on the Dutch art market in the 1990′s.
Bibliography: cf. Miles 1951a | cf. Morton 1985 | cf. Bates 1993, 1981 | cf. Balog 1981. a very rare glass coin weight in an excellent condition
