Details

Natural gemstones combine their innate beauty with their natural energies in a petite pyramid. Meticulously sculpted by Cesar Gonzales, it combines calcite, angelite, serpentine, white onyx, rhodochrosite, aragonite and black onyx, displayed from top to bottom. The artisan recommends having two or three pyramids oriented toward the north or east near a window, for light. In this way, the earth elements balance the energies in the environment.

This pyramid is designed to evoke Cusco's spectacular Rainbow Mountain. Properly named Vinicunca, meaning "colored mountain" in the Quechua language and also the Mountain of Seven Colors, it is actually formed of 14 different miracles.

"Just one of many"

I have purchased several of Sr. Gonzaless gemstone sculptures and have sent many as gifts to friends. To me, this one is even more beautiful than his other pyramids. I kept it for myself!

"Unique and well made artisan gifts for my 2 sons"

I purchased 2 of these for Christmas gifts for my 2 sons and they loved them. They both came individually wrapped in Peruvian gift wrap that in itself was very special. Both of my sons placed the pyramid on their desks so they can view it daily. The pyramid in very smooth and colors are vibrant and there does seem to be an energy or creative quality to the object. Im purchasing one for myself to place on my desk today. Thank you, Holly Schmidt

Preserving Traditions

Preserving Traditions

"I learned to carve stone from a friend. In turn, I have taught my son and many of my workers the art of stone carving. When one of my artisans leaves to start a workshop of their own, I feel great pride. It means that the stone art of Peru will live on. Stone carving records the history of Peru and the Andes. Even though we now use machinery to bring our hand drawings to life... the stories the stones tell and the motifs we incorporate have been with us since pre-Inca times."
