More than 2,700 years ago, Lamassu statues stood at the entrances of Assyrian palaces and cities in Nineveh and Nimrud as symbols of protection, strength, and authority.
The Lamassu combines a human head, symbolizing wisdom; the body of a bull, representing strength and resilience; and the wings of an eagle, signifying elevation, influence, and freedom.
The Lamassu was not merely a decorative sculpture. It served as a symbolic guardian placed at monumental entrances to protect palaces, rulers, and the wealth of the empire.
The engraving on this wallet brings that ancient Assyrian symbol into an everyday piece, expressing protection, wisdom, and strength while guarding what its owner values most.
