Narino Bullet Amphora - Miniature Form!

Extremely rare size! Ancient Pre-Columbian Narino Amphora from Colombia, ca. 500-1000 A.D. A fine miniature version of the classic 'bullet' style amphora. Slender, elongated body with rounded-point base, tapered neck and flared rim. Polychrome pottery with black negative-resist geometric decoration, with black and red bands on tan ground. Metal tripod stand. 9-1/4"H (not including stand), rim partially restored where there was chipping and roughness, plus minor paint loss near pointed base, else excellent.

PROVENANCE: Ex-East Coast Auction Gallery, ex-private European Collection.
