- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, Lower Amazon Basin, Brazil, Marajo Island, Marajoara culture, ca. 800 to 1400 CE. A hand-built pottery bowl of an attractive form with a round but stable base, a carinated lower body, lightly corseted walls, and a flared rim, all presented with high burnishing marks and an orange-red slip color. The walls and base are intricately incised with abstract geometric shapes, curvilinear striations, and a serpentine stripe encircling the midsection. Shallow dishes like this example were traditionally used for holding ceremonial offerings, and the elaborate decorative program is akin to a labyrinthine pattern which is a hallmark of Marajoara ceremonial vessels. Size: 6.9" W x 3.625" H (17.5 cm x 9.2 cm)
Provenance: private Hawaii, USA collection; ex-Eugene Lions collection, Switzerland, acquired prior to 1970
All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
A Certificate of Authenticity will accompany all winning bids.
