- Lot Description
Pre-Columbian, Central America, Panama, Gran Cocle culture, ca. 800 to 1000 CE. A wonderful pottery vessel in the form of a disembodied trophy head and adorned with orange, red, and tan pigments. Supported by a conical foot, the spherical body of the vessel forms the head and presents stylized features, such as almond-shaped eyes, a lengthy, pointed nose, and full lips held slightly open, as though mid-speech or song. A pair of elongated ears fitted with annular earspools flank the ancient visage, all surmounted by a cylindrical headdress that doubles as the neck and rim of the vessel. An applied petaloid motif additionally adorns the front of the headdress. Size: 6" Diameter x 6.6" H (15.2 cm x 16.8 cm)
Provenance: private Eagle, Colorado, USA collection, acquired in the 1990s
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.
