Delivery EstimateEl maestro ceramista Walter José Acosta replica el arte de la cultura Chimú con este jarrón canino. Acosta es fiel a los detalles artísticos y los colores preferidos por los Chimú, que vivieron en el norte de Perú entre 1100 y 1400 a. C. Acosta elabora una impresionante réplica de cerámica, que pinta con pigmentos naturales. Luego, la escultura se entierra en el suelo durante unos días para lograr un aspecto desgastado.

The Chimu Dog is my third piece of Mr. Acostas work. We have the owl cat and another piece (square Cupisnique cat?). The detail is very fine and particularly love the earthy finish. Never been to Peru but have been reading up on these older cultures through the influence of seeing your work. We were glad to find your loan on Kiva to be able to support your workshop. Phenomenal!

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 dog is a joy to see each day. High craftmanship, skill, and attention to detail are qualities of each piece. Highly recommend this artists work.

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.
