Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, West Mexico, Nayarit, ca. 300 BCE to 300 CE. A hand-built and highly burnished pottery figure of a woman who sits in a dramatic forward-leaning pose while holding both arms to her waist. Decorated in hues of red and orange, the stylized figure features globular breasts beneath rounded shoulders as well as a pair of 'legs' protruding from her posterior that stabilize her otherwise off-kilter pose. Her elongated head features coffee bean-shaped eyes, a triangular nose adorned with a septum ring, and perforated ears, all beneath a tall brow and a minimalist headband. A large vent hole atop the head aided with the firing process of the figure. Size: 4.5" W x 9.1" H (11.4 cm x 23.1 cm)

Provenance: private Lumberton, Texas, USA collection, before 2000; ex-Heritage Auctions
