How can I authenticate this presumably ancient Narino/Carchi pedestal bowl?
score:6
I eventually found this lady Dr. Lori, who has a really great youtube channel on all types of antiques.
I went to her site to pay for an appraisal. She does free appraisals if the value of your item is less than $60
I just submitted my bowl - we'll see https://www.drloriv.com/
UPDATED 27-May-2020
So Dr. Lori got back to me with her report and it turns out that it's an authentic piece! It's pretty common so not worth a ton but hey, better to have old crap not worth much than fake crap not worth much I guess.
Description: A ceramic decorated attributed Pre-Columbian bowl with a large loss area at the rim featuring concentric circular decoration that unites the decoration of the rim of the bowl to its center with a repeating pattern of four-legged (woodland) small animalistic figures with exaggerated eye in profile, large head, and curly tail in the PreColumbian Narino style. Based on the photographs provided by the owner, the piece is in good, stable condition with a clean break at the loss area of the rim and the remainder of the bowl shows signs of age and condition traits consistent with age and appropriate wear.
Size: 3 x 6 inches
