Pre-Columbian Aztec Jaguar Warrior figures and head shard

Description

Pre-Columbian Aztec Jaguar Warrior figures and head shard. Selling both out of<br>an important collection of world artifacts all purchased through major auction<br>houses/reputable galleries. The receipts I did find showed price was no object.<br>I feel really fortunate to be able own these items even if just for a short time<br>and to be able to offer them at a fraction of what they last sold for. The<br>collector collected for himself and was low key as are his heirs, so as much as<br>I would love to acquire more provenance on each item it's just not possible at<br>this point without being intrusive, then possibly still not possible.<br><br>The head shard is great and all, measures 4.75" wide x 4.25" tall with loss<br>shown, likely broken at the neck and part of a large figure. This Jaguar warrior<br>is absolutely amazing, polychrome decorated, has an amazing "no brainer" to me<br>patina overall. Very realistic figure made by a skilled potter at the time. 6"<br>tall with old restorations to clean break at head, base of sword, and one leg.<br>Even though this is not incredibly large it is incredibly nice and my guess is<br>the previous owner paid thousands of dollars for this figure. Selling both<br>pieces shown. Guaranteed over 500 years old.
