Vintage Sebastian Paz Signed Chulucanas Peru Art Pottery Charger
Up for sale is a stunning, authentic piece of Peruvian folk art pottery from the renowned ceramic hub of Chulucanas in Northern Peru. This large 12-inch shallow bowl/charger plate is hand-crafted and beautifully preserves ancient pre-Hispanic artistry traditions.
Artisan Details & Traditional Technique
- Artist Signature: Authentically hand-incised on the raw clay base: \"Sebastian Paz / Chulucanas / Perú\".
- The Process: Hand-formed without a commercial mold, then hand-burnished to a smooth semi-gloss sheen using smooth river stones.
- Negative Decoration: The high-contrast geometric checkerboard and circular patterns are achieved via a traditional smoke-firing reduction technique using burning mango leaves, which darkens the exposed earthenware while masked areas retain their natural slip colors.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Bold, modernist geometric layout that pairs beautifully with Mid-Century Modern, bohemian, or global eclectic interior styles.
Approximate Measurements
- Diameter: 12 inches
- Format: Shallow bowl / decorative wall or tabletop display plate
