Oblong jar with four extended fins and fanned tail with amusing face with raised eyes and circular mouth. Vessel liberally painted in red and black on light orange pottery.

Size: 9.5" L x 6.5" W x 4.75" H (24.1 cm x 16.5 cm x 12.1 cm)

The Casas Grandes (or Chihuahua) culture has always been the best known of the prehistoric cultures of northwest Mexico. International awareness of the culture first derived from its polychrome pottery and from the massive ruins of the culture's principal center, Casas Grandes - also known as Paquime.
