This is a handcrafted terracotta bird ocarina whistle, likely of Pre-Columbian or folk art origin. The piece is unglazed, showcasing the natural earthy tones of the clay. It features carved details on the wings and tail, and a prominent beak. The bird is depicted in a seated posture, with distinct leg and foot details. Multiple holes on the body suggest it functions as an ocarina/whistle. The overall style is primitive folk art, with a naive yet expressive quality.
