Vale do Indus Terracota Embarcação com Padrão de Escama de Peixe
A finely moulded Indus Valley vessel, likely used in antiquity for eating or drinking. The piece features a cylindrical body with slightly tapering walls and a large mouth with a rim. The vessel stands on convex, circular base. It is decorated with thick red horizontal lines framing a large register with fish scale patterns on the body. The interior is undecorated. The vessel presents a few minor chips on the rim, body and base. Earthy encrustations to the surface.
The Indus Valley Civilisation extended from what today is northeast Afghanistan to Pakistan and north-west India. It was one of three early and widespread cradles of civilisation along with Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. At its peak, the Indus Valley Civilisation, which included such sites as Harappa and Mohenjo-daro, may have had a population of over five million, who developed new techniques in pottery, seal carving, and metallurgy.
Measurements: Circa H 9cm x W 12.5cm
Provenance: From the David Gold (deceased) collection, 1970’s.
