Description: R.I.P >>> this collector has amassed a westerncollection most of us only dream about. HugeAdobe Ranch house was stuffed wall to wall. Pretty much empty now ... echos walking acrossthe brick floors. Estate dispersal, huge 9 bed room Adobe must bebulldozed. Previous owner was an avid collectorof Western Americana specifically Southwest. Hewas also a Archeologist so I expect he had a goodeye for Anasazi stuff. This was one of a dozen or maybe 20 pieces he prized above all else. The place was an Antique Hoard believe me. GrandPianos and whole works. So ... ... there it is. This Jumbo Olla, approx 16 x 12 inches 11 pounds.Even though it is not flat on the bottom, it is quitebalanced, does not roll. No doubt an experienced potter engineered this unique storage vessel. Old price tag was $20,000.00. If you need a COAwell here I is > Guaranteed to be at least 1000years old. ( rumors ... you can buy a COA for anything for a $5 bill ). This stuff has been stored away for more thanhalf a dozen decades and there are desert odors. Most all these pieces were wrapped in old deteriorated newspapers in separate paper sacks n old boxes. Its clean and ready for a captivating display.One more added note: Amazing how solidthe bowl feels in your hands. You know itsquite thin compared to most pottery pieces.Looking at the bottom you can actually seefinger indentations molding the bulbous form. Local pickup is great, $1000 off > message with details.
