I’m glad if the article has been useful, Jim. And lucky you for receiving such a set of fireplace tools. The British Museum sells lamassu-shaped bookends that I’d covet if not restricted to an early-career-academic budget…

Mon, 19 Mar 2018 12:45:25 +0000http://quantumfrontiers.com/?p=14058#comment-90877About 30 years ago we purchase a home. The owners gave us a set of fireplace tools that we felt were unique. They were wrought iron and held in a triangular base with some unusual figures in relief on the sides of the base. We have always wondered what they were. Now we know. They are Lamassu. Thank you for solving our mystery.
