- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, Northern Mexico, Casas Grandes, Ramos style, ca. 1100 to 1200 CE. A beautiful coil-made, hand-painted polychrome Casas Grandes pottery bowl with a round yet stable base, wide spherical body, a petite neck with four small perforations, and a flared rim. The vessel has painted decorations typical to traditional Ramos-style pottery; Ramos, as a stylistic designation, is used when red-hued painted forms are outlined in black. The body of this vessel exhibits a number of different motifs including circular, stepped, linear, and triangular forms. The most exceptional Casas Grandes vessels usually have Ramos-style designs, and examples such as this show how this style required great skill and aesthetic vision. Size: 5.25" H (13.3 cm).
The Casas Grandes (or Chihuahua) culture has always been the best known of the prehistoric cultures of northwest Mexico. International awareness of the culture first derived from its polychrome pottery and from the massive ruins of the culture's principal center, Casas Grandes—now better known as Paquime.
Provenance: private Tacoma, Washington, USA collection, purportedly found at Pueblo Ruins
