Peruvian pot. Bottle is made from a dark grey clay, with a burnished surface. Two nearly identical bottles, round and bulbous at bottom and with long tubular necks, make up the vessel, and are connected at body and by a corrugated bridge extending between the necks. A parrot is perched on the top of one bottle, with a large beak, protruding eyes, and wings tucked close to its body.
Peruvian pot. Black clay bottle is round and bulbous, with a tall neck leading to a slightly flared lip. A monkey clings to the neck and shoulder of the pot by his feet and tail, serving as a handle.

A spout emerges from its top. Handle is painted a rust-red, as is the woman’s face, collar, and outlines along the edges of the base. The rest of the object is a mottled orange-brown.
