Description

Put these 2 round/flat primitive pottery vessels in your collection or display them in your home. Made by Amazonian Indians of the Shipibo tribe, each piece is individually hand crafted without the use of a potter's wheel using the coil method. The principal decorative theme is the "Cross and Serpent" repeated in geometric form. These vessels are purely for decorative purposes. One of the vessels has a hairline crack. Each measures 6 ¼” in diameter, 4” high.
