**Originally Listed At $150**

Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Chancay, ca. 800 to 1300 CE. A hand-built pottery vessel with a globular body, a tall neck, and a thin rim, all supported on a conical foot. The neck and shoulder boast raised details which form the head and body of a stylized anthropomorphic figure whose features are brought forth with black pigment atop the cream-hued ground. Large eyes, petite ears, and full lips comprise the countenance, and a roundel-adorned headband wraps around the exterior rim. Size: 4.3" W x 6.7" H (10.9 cm x 17 cm).

Provenance: private Allison collection, Kent, Washington, USA, inherited in the mid-1970s
