Casas Grandes Polychrome Fish Form Vessel

Item Details

Description

Pre-Columbian, Northern Mexico, Chihuahua, Carretas, Casas Grandes, ca. 1060 to 1340 CE. A remarkable vessel of in the form of a fish, where the body bows outward and inward and resolves to a slightly turned rim to produce an elegant silhouette, all sitting upon a round yet stable base. Boasting hues of black and russet on light orange, the exterior is skillfully adorned with a hand-painted geometric pattern that includes spiraling steppe motifs that represent home or marriage. Applied clay features form the bulging eyes and fins of the fish, while an incised striation below the eyes represents the mouth. The rim has been pierced with 4 drill holes, allowing the charming vessel to be suspended. Size: 10" L x 7.3" W x 4.5" H (25.4 cm x 18.5 cm x 11.4 cm)

Casas Grandes (Spanish for Great Houses; also known as Paquime) is a prehistoric archaeological site in the northern Mexican state of Chihuahua. Casas Grandes is one of the largest and most complex Mogollon culture sites in the region. Settlement began after 1130 CE and would see the larger buildings developed into multi-storied dwellings after 1350 CE. The community was abandoned approximately 1450 CE. Casas Grandes is regarded as one of the most significant Mogollon archaeological zones in the northwestern Mexico region, linking it to other sites in Arizona and New Mexico in the United States, and exhibiting the expanse of the Mogollon sphere of influence.

Provenance: ex-Marilyn Eber Collection of Native American Art, Denver, Colorado, USA, acquired in 1985; ex-Gene Lang collection, Denver, Colorado, USA, collected between 1978 to 2000
