Permian bronze casts
Permian bronze casts were produced by the Komi and Udmurt people between 7th century BC and the 14th century AD.[1][2] Their size is 3–17 cm.[3] Their style is referred to as the 'Permian animal style.'[3]
Permian bronze casts were buried in cemeteries and were protected by customs. Foreigners were less hesitant to loot sacred places. A large collection was amassed by the Stroganov family in Perm.[3][4]
