Item Details

Description

**Originally Listed At $350**

Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Sican to Chimu culture, ca. 700 to 1400 CE. A double chambered bridge-spout vessel, the front chamber spout has a bird perched on top and a vent hole pierced into the bird's chest. When intact, this piece was probably a whistling vessel that produced music utilizing the principle that fluid would move from one chamber to another, thereby displacing the air in the second chamber that would vent through the small piercing on the bird- emitting sound. Size: 7" L x 3.5" W x 5.5" H (17.8 cm x 8.9 cm x 14 cm)

Provenance: private Carroll collection, Georgia, USA, by descent; ex-private Jim Carroll collection, Maryland, USA, acquired 1960s
