Pre-Columbian Art

Authentic Ceramics & Sculptures from Ancient Americas

The allure of Pre-Columbian art lies in its expressive forms, symbolic narratives, and deep connection to spiritual and everyday life of ancient American civilizations. Each vessel, figurine, or mask carries the legacy of cultural beliefs, ritual significance, and artisan mastery.

From Moche stirrup-spout bottles adorned with zoomorphic and mythical figures to Recuay painted terracotta vases rich in stylistic detail, and Veracruz ceremonial masks reflecting ritualistic theater, our collection captures the creative richness of Meso- and South American societies. These works served not only as ceremonial objects or funerary offerings, but also as powerful storytellers—illustrating cosmologies, societal roles, and connections to deities.

More than decorative pieces, these antiquities are embodiments of ancient worldviews: a ceramic whistling vessel from the Nariño culture might have echoed in trance rituals, while anthropomorphic clay figures from the Nicoya region convey early notions of identity and representation in human form. Each artifact, through its form, iconography, and material, offers a tangible window into civilizations that shaped the pre-modern Americas.
