sun decor

The radiance of the solar star inspires the Huaman Paucar Family to design their own version of the Intihuatana stone. Meaning "Hitching Post of the Sun," it is found at Machu Picchu's highest point. Some believe the Inca carved several of these stone outcrops to connect earth and sky; other's believe it was a way of tying Father Sun to his Inca children. The Huaman Paucar Family honor this legendary emblem of Inca spiritualism with a handcrafted ceramic plate, which they paint with intricate detail.

Inspired by the decadent ornamentation of the colonial Cusco school, Gliseria Soto in Peru creates this gorgeous wall mirror. Crafted from wood, the frame receives applications of bronze leaf with a lustrous gleam.
