Details

In the traditional style of Inca aríbalos, this decorative vase from Peru is designed by Ynocencio Ccahuana. He crafts the vase by hand of ceramic as a replica of an actual aribalo vessel recovered from a dig site. Painted by hand, it features volcano and line motifs around its exterior. A snout-like shape protrudes from the side, as well as handles near the bottom and small holes at the top. This historic piece of home decor stands atop three small feet.

"There's nothing I enjoy more than working in clay to create... archaeological replicas of objects the ancients used in celebrations and religious rites. It's an incredible feeling!"

"I was born in the Pisac Valley, one of the most important archaeological parks in Cuzco's sacred valley of the Inca.... The ancient cities were laid out on stylized animal figures and the walkways take the shape of the Puna tinamou bird.

"My path in life has been rough, especially when I was very young. When I was eight years old, I had to work to help my family. There were times when food was scarce and we barely had enough money for the bus. Back then, poverty was worse than now but we managed to get head with courage and perseverance. Most important, we keep our family together with love and a hope for a better tomorrow. We worked day and night for hours as farmers and, for many years, this was my main activity to help my family.

"I had well-defined goals and never lowered my guard. I worked very hard for my humble achievements. Art has always attracted me with its mysticism. I've spent hours and hours reading about the history of my beautiful Peru. Growing up in the Inca sacred valley was a definite motivation and I worked to master ceramic arts. There's nothing I enjoy more than working in clay to create beautiful sculptures and archaeological replicas of objects the ancients used in celebrations and religious rites. It's an incredible feeling! I'm so glad that God blessed me with this ability and it's exciting to show it and share it.

"I learned my craft while helping in pottery workshops. My teachers were master artisans whose Inca ancestors once lived in these valleys. They shared their traditional techniques with me. My mother helped me set up my own workshop in a small Cuzco town. I, too, put a lot of sacrifice and work into it. Today, my wife and children share my same passion for historical Peruvian ceramics.

"It took me a long time to master the art, but I knew this was something I wanted to do for the rest of my life. Ever since, there's been no sacrifice that wasn't worth it. I have no doubt that my passion will overcome any challenge in life."

FINDING YOUR SIZE

Take your measurements with the tape measure over your under garments. If your measurements fall between sizes you may prefer the next larger size. Inseam, skirt and dress lengths vary by style and will be listed in the item description. Our sweaters are knit in standard American sizes, however actual measurements vary by style.

BUST / CHEST

Measure around the fullest part of chest under the arms and over the shoulder blades keeping the tape measure level.

WAIST

Measure around the smallest part of the waist keeping the tape measure comfortably loose. Most garments use the low waist measurement noted below.

LOW WAIST

Measure around the body approximately 1.5" below the natural waist (above). This is the area where most pants and skirts actually fit.

HIPS

Standing with your heels together, measure around the fullest part of the body approx 7"-8" below the waist.

NECK

Measure around the base of the neck keeping the tape measure comfortably loose.

SLEEVE

Bend elbow slightly and starting at the center back of the neck, measure across the shoulder, to the elbow and down to the wrist.

INSEAM

Our standard inseam length for women is 32" and 34" for men; however inseam measurements will vary slightly by style.

 

Belts with buckles are measured in inches that correspond to a waist size however, most people do not wear belts on the waist, they wear them closer to the hips. A buckle belt measurement is take from the end of the "pin" of the buckle to the middle hole on the belt. Generally there are 5 holes for size adjustment, with a 1" space between each, so the middle hole will the be average size of the belt.

For at tie belt (no buckle) measure the belt portion end to end and half of the tie portion. This again is the medium size of the belt.

For a soft fabric tie belt it can be called "1 size fits most" and the entire length of the belt should be measured and listed.

By skipping steps in the traditional supply chain, you can buy high quality items for less than the regular retail prices.
