Four Breton bronze axes of the Dahouet type, from the late Bronze Age to the early Iron Age in Western Europe, 10th–5th century B.C. Cast socketed axes with a square cross-section at the opening. Toward the slightly curved cutting edge, the cross-section becomes increasingly rectangular. The sides along the blade are slightly curved; the top and bottom curve outward slightly toward the cutting edge, with a casting ridge in the center and a semicircular eyelet on one side. The square mouth is surrounded by a thick bead featuring a distinctive ridge as a break. Length: 12.3 cm each. Four excellently preserved examples of the Dahouet type with a beautiful green patina and minor incrustations. CULTURAL HERITAGE! Provenance: From the private collection of A.L., acquired approximately 15 years ago from an art dealer in the Rhineland. Condition: I -
