Pre-Columbian, Northern Mexico and Southwestern United States, New Mexico, Casas Grandes, ca. 1200 to 1450 CE. A pair of hand-built pottery vessels: a storage jar and a conical bowl upon a pedestal foot. The larger vessel has a rounded but stable base, gently carinated body and sloped shoulder leading up to a flared rim. The surface is slipped in a brick red then over painted with the black to create a wavy motif and solid band just about the base. The other blackware vessel has an unusual flared and concave foot with a thick stem that supports the bowl, the sides incurved. Size: 6.5″ Diameter x 5.5″ H (16.5 cm x 14 cm)
Condition: Blackware pedestal bowl repaired and restored. Chips to rim and hairline fissures on foot. Pot is excellent with minor age expected surface wear and nice manganese deposits on the surface.
Provenance: private Denver, Colorado, USA collection, acquired prior to 2002
