Andean Peacocks Set of 4 Dried Gourd Peacock Ornaments from Peru

Canto Sisters

Stylized peacocks and pretty flowers pose on festive ornaments — one each in green, red, yellow and orange. Working in an ancient art they learned from their father, the Canto Sisters craft the set from dried gourds harvested from the yerba mate plant. They are cleaned, dried and painted before the images are meticulously engraved around the surface by hand.

Cultivated on the Peruvian coast for 6,000 years, mate gourds were decorated with images of birds and fish by the pre-Inca Moche and Chimu peoples. But it was the Inca who went on to use the gourds as cups and bowls, in ceremonial objects and in musical instruments.

Because each unique piece is handcrafted from a natural gourd, please expect slight variations in shape, size and motifs.

Artisan Teodolinda Seguil shows the beauty of the Andes' ancient arts in this handcrafted ornament—embellished with the region's traditions. Inspired by the classic Andean colors and motifs, the artisan paints every detail by hand, creating a captivating spring scene. As the final touch, a golden cord allows easy use.
