Amerind Ceramic Trophy Head Vessel with Tapered Spout

Item Details

Description

Native American, Southeast, Mississippian, ca. 1300 to 1500 CE. Terracotta head pots like this example are quite rare and highly collectible works of Native American visual culture. They were only made for a short time period at the end of the Mississippian cultural period and the verism of the visages is uncanny, as we see in this example, pointing to the keen technique and artistry possessed by the sculptors. This example presents an expressive face with large, realistic facial features and a coiffure that continues to the tapered spout comprised of stylized geometric motifs. Rich red pigment remains on the surface. Size: 6.75" W x 7.75" H (17.1 cm x 19.7 cm)

Provenance: Ex-California Museum of Ancient Art

All items legal to buy/sell under U.S. Statute covering cultural patrimony Code 2600, CHAPTER 14, and are guaranteed to be as described or your money back.
