The Andean artisan fell into the art of reverse-glass painting through an uncle after losing his job as a government accountant. This technique was born in Europe during the Middle Ages and later on spread to Asia, Africa, and the Americas. It's come to hold a special place in Peruvian folk arts after being revived in the 1960s and has evolved to accommodate multiple regional styles.

The splendor of the Colonial era meets the magnificence of the Eastern empires in the distinguished series of accessories by Asunta Pelaez of Peru.

The interior, in matching hues, has generous space, making this majestic chest a great artistic addition to your environment.
