This item is in good vintage cosmetic condition but features a notable hairline crack on the front side (visible in the close-up photos). The crack runs vertically from the silver metal rim down to the sunburst carving. Despite the hairline fracture, the gourd shell remains completely rigid, stable, and structurally intact for display. Up for sale is a unique and highly detailed example of traditional Andean folk art. This authentic vintage Peruvian Mate Burilado (fire-etched gourd) features fine-line sgraffito artwork hand-engraved by a South American artisan. • Front Side: Features a hand-etched folk-art rendering of the Peruvian National Coat of Arms (Escudo Nacional). The shield displays the native vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia topped by a radiating sunburst. It is beautifully framed by an etched laurel wreath tied with a delicate bow. • Back Side: Depicts an intricately carved portrait of an indigenous Andean couple, with the gentleman wearing a traditional knitted chullo cap and holding a pipe. • Rim Accent: The top opening is finished with an ornamental, floral-embossed silver-toned metal collar rim. Please review all photos closely as they serve as the ultimate indicator of physical condition.
