Vessel in the shape of a
Spondylus shell with face
The body of the vessel is designed as a spondylus shell and the spout
with a protruding rim is decorated with the eyes and beak of a bird. The shape of the
spondylus shell is comparable to a vessel from Trujillo in the Gretzer Collection in the
Ethnological Museum Berlin (SMB, inv. no. V A 47844). See also spondylus vessels from the
Museum Larco Hoyle (cat. no. ML027432).
