Item Details
Description
**Originally Listed At $250**

Pre-Columbian, Colombia, ca. 1000 to 1500 CE. A fascinating standing figure, cast from copper, featuring a broad, crescent-like headdress that encompasses the entire head with thin fan-like elements. The figure is otherwise nude, the body smooth aside from facial features, and grasps two things in the hands - possibly shakers to make music - with the knees bent as if dancing. Size: 1.75" W x 3.25" H (4.4 cm x 8.3 cm)

Provenance: ex-Craig Hendrix collection, South Carolina, USA; ex Charles Craig Jr. collection, Costa Rica, acquired in the 1960s and 1970s
