The vessel is indeed that of a puffer fish ceremonial vessel and the condition does show extensive ... moreloss of the blackware effect. Showing the red clay body.

The majority of Peruvian pottery is black, characterized by a distinctive metallic black-grey look. It is estimated that 95% of such pottery was produced within the Chimu culture during its dominance along the north coast of Peru(circa 850- 1470 A.D. Also there was less mass production in the Peruvian highlands. The fish vessel was made for an offering at burials. Chimu ceremonial blackware vessels do come up at auction and retail frequently.

Pre Columbian Chimu Lambayeque Pottery Peruvian Double Spout Vessel - 700 AD
A pre-Columbian Lambayeque-Chimu culture double spout vessel. Dating to 700– 1200 AD. This footed vessel has three sharply divided sections; a ring base. Body with a sharp ridge at the shoulder and two long, tapered spouts with an arched bridge handle. Beautiful painted decoration covers the majority of the tan slip. At first glance this exuberant vessel might appear to be decorated with simple scenes from the natural world. Yet look closer and it is in fact telling a story of the supernatural. A tale of immortality that was popular long before the Spanish arrived on the shores of South America. A story passed down through countless generations, it shows the legend of Naymlap, the fearless founder of a centuries old dynasty that ruled the Lambayeque Valley. Naymlap was a mysterious lord who arrived from the north with a vast fleet of totora ... morerafts carrying a huge entourage that included his chief wife. His personal guard of forty warriors and an embroider of his feathered shirts. Having come to shore at the mouth of a great river, the group walked inland and founded a settlement which came to dominate the surrounding lands. Throughout his long reign, the people enjoyed peace and prosperity. So popular was Naymlap that when his death finally came, it was kept secret by his attendants who feared the repercussions and they buried him in the same room where he had lived. To explain his mysterious disappearance, they claimed the revered old man had evaded death by learning to fly and gliding up to the heavens for an immortal existence. This theme is encapsulated in on the vessel. We see Naymlap riding atop the crest of a rainbow symbolising ritual flight and flanked by two attendants. He wears the crown and projecting ear ornamentation one associates with Lambayeque nobility. Meanwhile the row of birds running along the shoulder is likely an allegory of the heros flight into heaven. This remarkable artefact shows not only the story of Naymlap, but how pre-literate societies used the visual arts to communicate their

Ancient Tumi Copper Peruvian Chimu Culture c1000-1300 AD Ceremonial Axe/Knife
Chimu Culture- 1000- 1300 AD. These'Tumi' knives/ axes were sharped to an extreme sharpness like a razor blade on the curved end. Although they say they were'Ceremonial' in nature. They almost definitely were hafted on the end of a knife handle or short spear and used in a sweeping motion like a swishing pendulum(My conjecture. see notes below) These blades would have been awesome as they would have glinted in the sun. These are found. Generally, with mummies. Because they are normally wrapped in cloth, they have embedded textile fragments permanently bonded to the matrix(as can be seen along the edge, and in many places across the face of the blade) because of the, almost, 1000 years of burial. It exhibits the typical crescent-shaped blade with slightly flared'handle' although the'handle' was probably fitted ... moreinto a slit in a long pole. And the pole was probably decorated with feathers, shell beads and paint) It was generally only owned by royalty or those with money to show-off their power and magical properties as copper was never smelted by the Peruvians. but was. Rather, found as copper nuggets and then hammered into shape over a long period of time until it was thin. The'handle' is about 3/64" thick and is square on the sides. Whereas the blade has been sharpened to a razor-sharp curved blade. It was from an estate sale from a person's collection. Guaranteed to be Authentic and From that Time Period. 14 Day Return Period(you pay return postage) Comes with 12" x 8" x 1" glass-front display box with four stabilizing pins. Size: 8" Long x 4" Wide x 1/8" Thick. Weight of Tumi: 2 Oz. Weight(Box Included in Weight) 1 lb 1 oz. A member asked an interesting question. about it being hafted or not. Here is my reply as to the conjecture that this blade might have been hafted. which might interest you: Here is a page which shows how they tended to be attached to a shaft. In this case they are showing the pointed Incan blades. but because of t

Antique Pre-Columbian Peruvian Chimu Primitive Pottery MOCHE Vessel Male Figure
Box C-K. This is a wonderful antique Pre-Columbian piece. I purchased this from a local estate as Pre-Columbian and they have been in the family for decades but that is really all the information I have. In looking around on the internet they look like they may be form the Chimu People in Peru. This piece is in pretty good condition there is some chipping around the rim of the jar but otherwise I don’t see any chips cracks or breaks to note. There is some soiling and scuffing but it’s in great antique condition. The jar/pitcher is 6.5”T x 5.5”w x 3.75”d Terms of sale: I am not an expert on any item category I may sell.
