  • Throughout pre-Islamic Persia, the concept of The Hunt was closely related to Supernatural Valor and Heroic Attributes associated with the Divinity Mithra (Garsoïan, 1981, pp. 50-54). Mithra's incarnation appears as a fine horseman hunting boars at the Dura Europos Mithraeum (Cumont; Rostovtzeff, p. 280). Barthold had already noted that the heroic image of Bahrām Gōr as a Supernatural Hunter reflects an identification with Vərə-θraγna “The Giver of Victory”. 
  • Provenance: from the Collection of Lois Sherr Dubin. 
  • Lois Sherr Dubin wrote The History of Beads: From 30,000 B.C. to the Present (Abrams, 1987; reissued in paperback in 2004 and updated in 2009 as The History of Beads: From 100,000 to the Present), a beloved classic study and reference on the subject that has been published in five languages. Scholar, Researcher and Collector, Lois Sherr Dubin is also the world renowned author of several authoritative books on Native American jewelry and beadwork, and co-curator of numerous museum exhibitions including Totems to Turquoise: Native North American Jewelry Arts of the Northwest and Southwest; Glittering World: Navajo Jewelry of the Yazzie Family and Floral Journey: Native North American Beadwork.
  • On a personal note, Ms. Dubin's magnificent book The History of Beads: From 30,000 B.C. to the Present was one of the most important inspirations in the early days of Beads of Paradise NYC. When we first opened in the East Village 3 decades ago, Ms. Dubin's book was always on our sales counter as the authoritative guide to understanding the vast array and complexities of Cultural Beads and Adornments. To many bead lovers and admirers, this was our "Bible", and Ms. Dubin's Bead Timeline Map was hung prominently in the shop. Customers would line up in front of the Timeline, trace the origins of beads they were buying, beads they would like to order, or just plain beads they were dreaming of having someday.
  • To this day, whenever a customer asks for a reference guide, or just a book dealing with beads, Ms. Dubin's book is still the top of our recommendations.

Great natural product
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I use this product for surfing and most of the natural sunscreens end up burning my eyes. This one does not run or rub off. After trying a bunch of other brands this has been my go to for the last couple of years.

Healthy Sunscreen
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Really great sunscreen without the harmful chemicals. Takes a bit longer to rub in since it sits on top of your skin vs. getting absorbed.

Best sunscreen on market

Good Mineral Sunscreen
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Yes, it leaves a white cast, but it isn’t as thick and sticky as most out there. Very few ingredients makes me happy. I’ve tried mineral sunscreens with all zinc and they feel smothering, and like velvet everything sticks to the face. This one, with smaller amounts of zinc and titanium is better. It will pill if you use too much and rub too vigorously.
