Authentic Pre-Columbian Monochrome Bird Whistling Artifact from the Northern Coast of Peru. This vessel from the Chimu Culture dates from the Intermediate Period circa 1100-1470 CE (AD). Double stirrup Vessel in overall black color has incised decorations similar to what I have seen at Ruins of Chan Chan. Beautiful, hand-built blackware pottery vessel with a pair of carinated spherical chambers connected with a narrow central joint below and a bridge handle above. The highly burnished surfaces of each chamber are incised with linear and stippled motifs that create a mesmerizing presentation. Projecting from atop the frontal chamber is a stylized avian head with a conical beak, seed-form eyes, and a tone hole on top. The tone hole creates a high-pitched sound when air is blown into the cylindrical spout emanating from the back chamber. Size: 7.7" L x 3.75" W x 5.3" H (19.6 cm x 9.5 cm x 13.5 cm) Unique authentic artifact from ancient Peru. Condition: Minor abrasions to base, handle
