An Islamic Agate Inscribed Seal Stone.
An oval agate seal stone of warm honey-brown tone, finely engraved with bold Arabic calligraphy. The inscription is executed in a flowing script and set within a cross-hatched ground, framed by a beaded oval border that accentuates the composition.
The reverse is smooth and undecorated, showing natural surface wear consistent with handling. The stone has been carefully shaped with softly rounded edges, suitable for mounting as a seal or devotional talisman.
Approximately 5.8 x 3.8cm
