Four-legged figurine vessel in the shape of a standing tapir. The object has a spherical body, a short, extending neck and a bulging, reinforced rim. A medium-sized, hollow head protome is attached to the body and has raised and recessed attributes. A conical tail protome is located on the opposite vascular section. The vessel legs have rattle spheres and small, triangular openings arranged in a rosette shape. The pottery is smoothed and slipped on both sides. Red colour residues appear on the outside of the vessel wall, on the lip and on the inside of the neck. The legs, body and head protomes show traces of firing. There are small fractures on the rim of the vessel and on one leg. The outside of the monochrome pottery and the inside of the neck of the vessel probably had a red-brown base colour. According to Haberland 1955: Boruca red brown. Cultural significance: the Ceiba Rojo Café type mainly comprises utility ceramics. It has been documented both in settlement contexts and in burials.
