This two-tone cushion cover is the kind of decorative accent that can change completely how a space looks and feels. Designed by Peruvian artisan Antonio Vasquez, the motifs pay homage to the iconography and cave paintings traditional of the region of Cajamarca. The back, made from a plain polycotton drill fabric, features a hidden zipper that allows for the insertion of a cushion (not included) while the front is exquisitely woven by hand from cotton.

Artisan Kelvin Maguina of Peru designs this beautifully detailed wood jewelry box in warm golden tones with accents in brown, red and green. The jewelry box features intricate decoration on the exterior made of cedar wood and tooled leather. A pair of birds keeps watch in a garden of ornate flowers and leaves on the domed lid and variations of that motif are carried through to the sides and front. The jewelry box has three drawers and one top compartment, all lined in a velvety-soft red fabric.

Symmetrical patterns in amber and different shades of blue bring a playful accent to this teal pullover sweater from Peru. Fernando Cano's design features a soft crew neck and a slightly opened curved waist for a deliciously comfortable fit. The sweater is knit of an alpaca blend - coveted since the days of the Inca Empire because it is soft, lightweight and warm.
