Description
Ancient / Pre-Columbian-style terracotta figure (possibly Costa Rican Guanacaste/Nicoya in style) with two side loops and a fish emerging from its chest, painted with polychromed patterns in orange and black.

Fish head has been broken and reaffixed with a visible repair, two holes in the back of the fixture, the lower of which appears to be the result of a break.
