Peruvian Handcarved Cedar Wood Vicuna Sculpture, "Andean Vicunas"
Slender and graceful, two vicuñas stand tall on willowy legs. One quietly crops grass while the other stretches toward the sky. Johnny Chamba depicts the pair in an elegant dark brown cedar wood sculpture. Related to the llama and alpaca, the vicuña is so important to Andean customs and economy that it appears on the national seal.

"Proud Peruvian Walking Horse"
My wife has loved horses nearly all of her life. She was delighted with her “Proud Peruvian Walking Horse,” captivated by Johnny Chamba s exquisite carving and its vibrant color. The carving holds a place of honor in our bedroom and she has told all her friends and relatives about her wonderful gift. Thank you Johnny Chamba and Novica.
