- Lot Description
**Originally Listed At $300**
Pre-Columbian, Central Coast Peru, Chimu, ca. 500 to 800 CE. A charming mold-formed pottery stirrup vessel in the form of a duck afloat on the water. Boasting a lustrous black glaze, the lovely vessel presents a protruding head at one end and a tapered tail at the other as a cylindrical stirrup spout projects from its back. The adorable animal displays a naturalistic head with target-motif eyes, a prominent basal knob, and a lengthy, downward pointing bill. A pair of attenuated legs with petite feet are displayed on the sides of the bird's body, drawn up beneath its folded wings. One side of the stirrup spout presents a tiny monkey with a sinuous tail. Size: 9" W x 8.875" H (22.9 cm x 22.5 cm)
Provenance: ex-Stein collection, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, USA, acquired on April 20th, 2002; ex-Haig's of Rochester, Rochester, Michigan, USA; ex-William Micol collection, Milford, Michigan, USA
