Rare Carchi Solid Pottery Coca Chewers - Matched Pair!

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Colombia, Capuli-Carchi, ca. 850 to 1500 CE. A matching pair of Coqueros, the female sitting on the ground rather than on a bench as was the custom for males of this genre. Further differentiating between the two, the female wears a cap-like headdress and a long skirt; the male dons a headband and loincloth. Despite these differences, they are a matching pair as both present similar minimalistic visages with white outlined almond-shaped eyes, protruding noses, slit mouths, black tattoo marks, and small ears, and both are on set on rectangular planks. Size: 5.875" L x 4" W x 8.125" H (14.9 cm x 10.2 cm x 20.6 cm)

Coqueros are defined as figures who chew Coca leaves as indicated by the bulges in their cheeks. For similar examples, see Armand Labbe's "Colombia Before Columbus: The People, Culture, and Ceramic Art of Prehispanic Colombia" (Plate XXXVII and XXXVIII).
