Item Details

Description

**First Time At Auction**

Pre-Columbian, South Coast of Peru, Nazca culture, ca. 200 to 400 CE. A hand-built and highly burnished pottery vessel in the shape of a charming avian creature, perhaps a quail, with brown and tan pigment accented by white streaks. The plump bird features tab-shaped wings protruding from the sides as well as a fan-shaped tail, with impressed eyes and a petite beak comprising the visage. An arching handle and conical spout rise from the top of the body, and the base is rounded but relatively stable. A whistle behind the handle no longer functions. Size: 7.625" L x 5" W x 6.7" H (19.4 cm x 12.7 cm x 17 cm)

Provenance: private New York, New York, USA collection; ex-Madison, Wisconsin, USA collection
