- Lot Description
Native American, Southwest United States, Southern Colorado Plateau, Ancestral Puebloan (Anasazi), ca. 1075 to 1250 CE. A beautiful ladle of utilitarian form, hand-built from pottery via the coil-and-scrape method, that is covered in smooth white pigment. The ladle exhibits a deep scoop with a thick rim, a gently tapered neck, and a lengthy handle with a large loop at one end used for suspending the tool when not in use. Inside the scoop is an elaborate linear motif consisting of a central annular disc from which serrated tendrils emanate and spiral around but do not touch at their tips. Made for heating and serving food, ladles like this example were probably ultimately deposited with a deceased member of the community or left in an abandoned domestic space. Size: 14.125" L x 5.5" W (35.9 cm x 14 cm); 7.8" H (19.8 cm) on included custom stand.
This piece has been tested using thermoluminescence (TL) analysis and has been found to be ancient and of the period stated. A full report will accompany purchase.
