拍品描述
Description Pre-Columbian, Peru, Inca, ca. 15th to early 16th CE. A wonderful Inca kero, carved from a single piece of wood to create a gracefully flared tumbler vessel, with incised geometric motifs likely inspired by textile patterns. Skillfully hand-carved (rather than made on a lathe) and incised with an upper register of checkerboard-like woven motifs and a lower register of running triangular motifs, this vessel was most likely used for drinking Chicha - a fermented corn beer favored by the indigenous. Size: 5.25" W x 6.5" H (13.3 cm x 16.5 cm) See a similar example at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (accession number 1994.35.11). Provenance: ex-New York, New York, USA collection; ex private West Virginia, USA collection, acquired 1960s to 1970s 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.
