This double-chambered Chimú-Inca redware pot has a bridge connecting the spouts and conjoined vessel bodies. It is decorated with bands of raised-relief animals (felines or foxes?) painted in orange and brown on a white ground, above a red band and below a brown band with white circles. The spouts are tan; one rim has white and brown spots on a red ground; the bridge is decorated with brown spots and lines on a buff ground.
