Help From Peruvians ??

[DIDI]

I want one of these !!



Apparently they are made by a peruvian artist , I can get a turquoise one here in Australia, but can't find this one. I got the photo from a site and when I went back it was gone. If anyone can give me any links I would appreciate it.

Hey, nice one!

I´ve been thinking about buying something like this for my girlfriend, we both love Incan/Mayan/Aztec cultures so if any of you has some links to places where I can buy that kind of stuff, I´d appreciate it (I´ve only been looking at eBay).

^^^ it's really fascinating !! If you google you will find a lot, but I think a lot of it is cheap touristy stuff !

Just make sure you break the Nikes in first before you wear them dancing. New shoes, dancing all night = bad news.

^^^ Thats why I'm trying to buy them now! Although it is Hernan ! I will probably be walking on air.

Well yeah, I did do a google on it, and like you said, a lot of it is just cheap stuff, but that etsy site has some great bits and bobs there.

Probably not cheap ordering it from Australia though.

Re: Help From Peruvians ??

from the first picture, I wasn't sure if this was like standard pendant size or if we're talking Flava Flav sized bling here:



if it's the latter and you wear it to the club, that would be very awesome.

Holy crap, I've seen these cats here in Germany. I chilled and watched them play for a while. They were selling CD's and what not.

Every European City has a Peruvian Pipe Band selling CD's !

Flinging that around would get me some dance space.
It's only 3.3.cm, 1 1/2 inches diameter.

Re: Help From Peruvians ??

Ok so , about a year ago I went with my ex girlfriend to Peru and she went nuts buying all these stuff , she must have bought like 10 of them , I went to every single place in Lima and Cuzco and they all have this.

From what I can remember lhe first one you posted cost around 30 bucks and the tuqiouse one cost about the same , If you can find one On ebay thats costs like that good for you, because is pretty much the actual price in Peru , they have many variations ( opal , opalina, turquoise , Nacar, sodalita ) all with the same shape , of the spiral , is not that one artist designs them and sells them , they are pretty much everywhere .

They have 2 sizes (5 cm and 3 cm ) medallions , so like i said every artesan makes this.

Here you go same design ,different web pages and colors

if they don't have on display the one you are looking for you could write to them and send them the pic I'm sure they will find you the one you want, also mention to them is important to get it before Cattaneo gets to australia they'll understand because in Peru everyone loves Hernan

hope this could help
