Iniohos brooch

The "Charioteer of Delphi" is one of the best known ancient Greek statues, and one of the best preserved examples of classical bronze casts. It is considered a fine example of the "Severe" style. Iniohos or "the charioteer" can today be visited at the Delphi museum close to the ruins of the Temple of Apollo and the "Delphic Oracle"

The original is 470 BC.
Cast in Bronze (also copper, silver, and onyx are present in eyes and details)
