Consulter la cote et le prix de Near-Choice Aztec Pottery Pitcher, Ex-Bonhams, 2014

Description : **Originally Listed At $700** Pre-Columbian, Central Mexico, Eastern Nahua, Atlixco City, Aztec, Coatlalpanec style, ca. 1470 to 1521 CE. A fantastic plumbate pottery jar, a distinctive style of pottery from the late Classic to early Postclassic Mesoamerica. This highly-burnished vessel exhibits a Coatlalpanec style red-and-black coloration with a flat base, a rotund body with a raised bulb on either side, a rolling shoulder leading to a wide neck, an angled pouring spout, and an applied strap handle joining shoulder to rim. Plumbate pottery has a uniquely shiny - sometimes even iridescent - glaze that has been fired at very high temperatures, and the style spread throughout Mesoamerica and Central America and fascinated archaeologists, explorers, and collectors alike. While plumbate pieces are typically grey in color, this vessel exhibits hues of russet, black, and other earth tones due to the specific mineral contents in the formative clay.
