Lot 22-205. Chimu Figural Bottle.

Chimu Figural Bottle. A fine Chimu figural bottle from Peru, ca. 1100 – 1450 AD. This nicely burnished blackware example is 5-1/4” high and features a human head adorned with a large labret. Sican stylistic influence can be seen in the shape of the eyes and the form of the labret, perhaps indicating the depiction of a prisoner. In perfect condition, with intact suspension loops and strong mineral deposits. Ex Gallatin estate.
