Costa Rican art is interesting because it displays influences of both Central and South America. Nicoya-Guanacaste pottery is the best known pottery from this region, and it is distinctive for its bold red and black designs. This example is a cute little ocarina (whistle) shaped as a toucan bird with polychrome details. It still has a nice, clean tone, and it has two tone holes that can be covered to adjust the note that it plays.
AGE: 800-1200 A.D. CONDITION: Intact and in nice shape. A cute little piece for the money! DIMENSIONS: Stands 3" tall (7.6 cm) |
