Casas Grandes / Paquime Effigy Vessel, Fish Form

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Northern Mexico, Chihuahua, Mogollon culture, Casas Grandes or Paquime, ca. 1130 to 1450 CE. A charming pottery vessel in the form of a fish featuring a bulbous body with a lizard-like head projecting from one side and a bifurcated tail at the other. Sitting on a rounded base, the bulging body attenuates to a slightly corseted neck and an annular rim, all enveloped in creamy beige-colored slip with nested spiral motifs hand-painted in sienna and black around the exterior. The rim has been pierced with 4 drill holes, allowing the jar to be suspended. Just imagine the effect once this ancient vessel was hung in one's home - the adorable fish must look as though he's swimming through the air with each blow of breeze! Size: 9" L x 6.6" W x 5.5" H (22.9 cm x 16.8 cm x 14 cm)

Provenance: private Reinsmoen collection, Clear Lake, Iowa, USA, acquired through descent from Robert Anderson, acquired prior to 2000
