Four very finely made copies of Colima pre-Columbian earthenware sculptures, and well-fired. The first is a tan dog, sitting on her hind quarters, with a short curled tail, looking slightly upward with her mouth open. It is a direct copy of a well-known piece that is currently in a museum. Size: 9 1/2 inches tall.
A statue of a musician, seated, wearing a conical hat, playing an instrument that resembles an ocarina. He is well fired, with a reddish color and a speckled finish. Size: 10 3/4 inches.
Ewer in the form of a dog with a vase-like opening in its back, and visible ridges along its spine. The dog's head is turned backward and its tail is raised. It is ocher colored with a speckled finish. Size: 9 1/2 inches tall.
Pitcher in the form of a stylized duck, with squared off bill, and webbed feet and short squared off wings. Size: 10 1/2 inches.
All four items are extremely well made, and are direct copies of known museum pieces.
Condition
Very good plus. They are made as copies of relatively ancient, excavated items. They are all of better quality than usually seen.
