📖 Product Description

This elegant Xerxes I Bust (Small Size) is a beautifully crafted artistic piece inspired by the powerful and influential Achaemenid king, Xerxes the Great (486–465 BCE). Designed with a regal and dignified expression, the sculpture captures the essence of Xerxes’ authority, leadership, and cultural significance in ancient Persia.

The bust features a majestic curled beard, a traditional Achaemenid crown adorned with symbolic motifs, and finely detailed garments that reflect the artistic mastery of the period.

A golden plaque on the base displays the historical identity in both Persian and English: “خشایارشا – دوره هخامنشی 486 پیش از میلاد / Xerxes I – Achaemenid Era” giving the sculpture a refined, collectible character.
