"Unsurpassed Craftsmanship"
Beautifully finished and detailed small wood and leather chest, most apt for use as a jewelry box. The leather is finely embossed with Inca symbols. I was also surprised that it was larger than it appeared in the picture. This is true craftsmanship and quality. Recommend this artisan and his products highly!

"I LOVE this chest, but..."
The hinge is not working properly -- my husband will try to repair the cracked wood as the chest is absolutely gorgeous!

It exceeds our expectations in beauty, functionality, quality and uniqueness. And to know it was lovingly crafted by hand in Peru is perhaps the best feature of all. Many thanks!
