🪔 Did you know?
Cylinder seals came in many sizes and colors — from tiny 0.5 cm miniatures to impressive 7 cm examples, often with a 2:1 height-to-diameter ratio.

Most were carved from stones like serpentine, lapis lazuli, or hematite — but not all! Less valuable materials such as shell, bone, quartz ceramic, or even clay (as in burgul seals) were also used, and metal examples are extremely rare.

Small objects, great variety.
