These original gourd boxes combine ancient technique with ancient design. Pre-Colombian textiles and ceramics serve our Peruvian artists as inspiration for this original collection. Animal-like elements and symbols are hand carved into gourds and later colored them with fire using the same techniques their ancestors used over 4000 years ago. As a collectors' piece, expect your one-of-a-kind gourd box to show distinctive features as unique as each of the samples shown. If you have a preference, please say so when ordering.
