Chulucanas Petals

Working in the traditional style of Chulucanas ceramics, Peruvian artisan Jesús Rivas designs and handcrafts this decorative vase. It features a simple shape with a straight neck, finished with petal motifs in tones of black and ivory that evoke modern art forms. The black color is achieved by firing the vase with mango tree leaves. On the bottom, the artist inscribes his name, the name of his hometown, and the phrase Hecho a mano (made by hand).
