This llama figurine is a beautiful example of Chulucanas pottery, handcrafted in the Peruvian town of Chulucanas using traditional techniques from pre-Inca times. The predominantly black and white design is achieved by dipping the ceramic piece in a liquid colored clay slip, then smoking it with mango leaves to create a dark black color in the negative space.
This piece is a wonderful way to bring a piece of Peruvian culture and craftsmanship into your home, while also supporting fair trade practices.
