Chancay figure pot. Body of pot is oblong, with a rounded base. Slight protrusions at front are embellished with paint as legs and arms, while small toes protrude near the base, and hands emerge from the chest holding a cup. The neck of the pot is tall and narrow and incorporates the figure’s face, with a pointed chin, protruding nose and slightly bulging eyes. Designs are painted in dark brown along chin, cheeks, and brows. Large ears with round earrings emerge from the sides, and above them are several similar, evenly spaced protuberances just under the rim.
