| Remarks: | Left lateral ribbled retouch creates a shallow notch -- very much more lustrous, howeever, so possibly recet/accidental.WAP: definitely intentional. Piece is very fresh and has very brittle edges. The only place where it is lustrous is where there is very standardized retouch. Possibly re-used? | |||||||
