**Originally Listed At $450**
Pre-Columbian, Ecuador, Manabi Province, Jamacoaque (Jama Coaque or Jama-Coaque), ca. 500 CE. A hand-built pottery doll of a regal woman standing with broad feet and outstretched arms. The orange-skinned woman wears a red, ankle-length skirt, blue wrist cuffs and pectoral necklace, a thin necklace with a cylindrical pendant shown between perky breasts. Her expressive countenance is composed of semicircular eyes, a petite nose adorned with a massive nose ring, a thin mouth, and cupped ears, all beneath an enormous headdress with lengthy lappets on the sides and a fin-shaped ornament on top. A blow hole beneath the feet create a pleasing low-pitched whistling sound behind the neck when played. Size: 4.2" W x 7.4" H (10.7 cm x 18.8 cm)
Provenance: private Hawaii, USA collection; ex-private T. Misenhimer collection, Beverly Hills, California, USA, collected from 1970 to 2008
