- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Sican / Lambayeque culture, ca. 750 to 1370 CE. A fine ensemble of two mold-formed pottery vessels with highly burnished surfaces. The shorter, cream-slipped vessel has a round but stable base, a spherical body with a carinated midsection, a pair of conical spouts protruding from the shoulder, and a wide stirrup-shaped handle arching in-between. The upper half is decorated with linear and abstract geometric motifs in red and orange pigment, and the handle features a panel of cresting waves. The taller blackware vessel has a flared foot, a dramatically carinated midsection with a sloped shoulder, a lengthy handle, and a tapered central spout. The front of the spout depicts Naylamp (also Naymlap, Nanlap, or Nylamp), the traditional founder of the Lambayeque dynasty, with the shoulders bearing a pair of prone anthropomorphic figures, and the handle with a stylized lizard. A wonderful gathering from ancient Peru! Size of largest (blackware): 5.75" W x 6.1" H (14.6 cm x 15.5 cm).
Provenance: ex-Sobredo collection, Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA, acquired in the 1970s
