Description

This piece has been hand-sculpted and colored with natural clays. Created by master clay artist Magno Huassaca, originally from Ayacucho Peru.

 

From the awe-inspiring ruins of Machu Picchu, the splendor of the jewels of Sipan, to the enigmatic Nazca lines, contemporary Peruvian artists have an immensely rich cultural heritage from which to draw inspiration. For thousands of years Peruvians have been perfecting the art of weaving, carving, knitting, pottery, and jewelry making, and their contemporary crafts reflect their talents. Lucuma Designs is proud to help preserve craft techniques that have stood the test of time, and that have been passed down from generation to generation.

“Since I was little, I had a passion for exploring the colorful and vibrant craft markets of Peru where there was always something new to discover. For over 20 years now, I have been honored to work side by side with top Peruvian artists co-creating handmade collections that honor their traditions. It feels good to give something back to my country and share its beauty with the world.” Alessandra Bravo, Co-Founder.
