- Lot Description
Native American, Southwestern United States, Arizona, Anasazi (Ancestral Puebloan), Reserve Black-on-White Type, ca. 1000 to 1200 CE. An impressive pottery pitcher, meticulously hand-painted in the Reserve black-on-white tradition with abstract linear and geometric patterns. The exterior is divided into 2 prominent, horizontal bands of decoration encompassing the apple-shaped lower body and tall, cylindrical neck, while interior, handle, and shoulder are left bare, boasting a creamy white slip. Pitchers such as this may have prepared hot beverages, and interestingly, researchers have gathered evidence of cocoa from Chaco pottery, indicating trade between Mesoamerican cultures and their neighbors to the north! Anasazi people may have served cocoa or other beverages in pitchers such as this. Size: 6.3" W x 7" H (16 cm x 17.8 cm)
Provenance: private New Jersey, USA collection; ex-Mark Brady collection, and excavated by him at Witches Well Ranch, Apapche County, Arizona, USA
