Item Details

Description

An intriguing plumbate figural vessel with a round, bulbous body with low relief face and knobs around the body, and incised linear patterns, covered in a lustrous plumbate glaze. The Maya produced a pottery with a hard and shiny surface known as plumbate ware which was probably made by a very small number of artisans around the Mexico/Guatemala border who then exported them throughout wider Mesoamerica. Size: 7" Diameter x 5.5" H (17.8 cm x 14 cm)
