De pie, con los brazos abiertos, un cuchimilco La pareja representa orgullosamente la cultura Chancay del Perú, que floreció entre 1200 y 1470 d. C. Se cree que su postura de bienvenida mantiene alejadas las malas energías. Los cuchimilcos siempre se encuentran en pares de un hombre y una mujer, símbolo de la dualidad divina. Walter Jose Acosta domina las técnicas cerámicas mientras elabora a mano cada réplica de figura de museo.

Hey, I Know You!”

I had a vision of these entities protecting me in an Ayahuasca ceremony. I had never seen or knew anything about them before. Then one day I stumbled across them on the Novice website, and I couldnt believe my eyes. They look extremely similar to what I saw in my journey. They items were in great condition and are made with excellent craftsmanship. Thank you!

Love thid pair”

After visiting Peru, was saddened that we didnt bring home more art for home, for we fell in love with the people, food and history. Novica and this amazing artist have provided us with a lovely treasure for our home. We bought 4 pieces, and this pair is a joy to see each day. High craftmanship, skill, and attention to detail are qualities of each piece. Highly recommend this artists work. As a history buff this pair is absolutely lovely. My husband loves them too!

Beautiful museum replicas”

We had seen numerous Chancay sculptures on a visit to the Larco museum in Lima, Peru. Walters sculptures are beautifully done, the color and aging is really spot on! I love this pair, arms held wide, sitting at the top of my bookcase. They look far more expensive than you might expect for the price, they exceeded all my expectations! No need to worry about a breakable item being shipping from Peru- they were VERY well packed. This would make a delightful wedding gift for a traveling couple who appreciate world art!

Beautiful conversation piece”

I bought this as a gift for myself to always remember the birth of my daughter and the beauty of delivering with a midwife. Having this piece in my home creates an opportunity to share this history and my connection to the story it tells.
