📖 Product Description

This elegant Parthian Shami Prince Statue (Small Size) is a beautifully crafted artistic replica inspired by one of the most celebrated masterpieces of the Parthian Empire. Based on the famous bronze statue discovered in Shami (Izeh, Khuzestan) and dating back to the 2nd century CE, this miniature sculpture captures the dignity, elegance, and cultural richness of ancient Iran.

The prince is depicted standing with a noble posture, wearing a traditional Parthian cap, long flowing hair, and a finely detailed Persian garment with soft folds and characteristic Parthian trousers. Every detail—from the engraved lines of the clothing to the texture of the hair and the shape of the headdress—has been recreated with precision to reflect the artistry of the original masterpiece.

The statue features an antique gray finish with a matte, aged texture that evokes the feel of an excavated artifact. A small golden plaque on the base displays the historical identity of the piece in both Persian and English: “Shami Parthian Prince – 150 BCE, Shami Temple” giving it a collectible and museum‑style appearance.

Crafted from high‑quality polyester resin, this miniature version is durable, lightweight, and ideal for modern or traditional décor. Its compact size makes it perfect for desks, bookshelves, galleries, or curated cultural displays.
