LARGE Vintage Hand Made Ornately Crafted Peruvian Church
LARGE Vintage Hand Made Ornately Crafted Peruvian Church. Made in Peru Circa 1940’s. Acquired in Lima Peru by Chuch and Eileen Hoffman while teaching in the 1980’s. Still in nice condition for its age. The detail in this Church with all of its figures, bells and artistry is a lot. There is no question the maker was a true artist and put countless hours in to its creation. Crack up the back stopping at a window that probably occured when it was made and patched primitively. 2 small faults can be found on close observation. One of the figures on the bottom is missing his hat and there is a piece missing on top of one of the towers (small) as shown in photos. Key Words – Peruvian Mission Church, Clay Church, Clay Mission, Red Clay, South American Pottery, Mexican Style Church, Peruvian Folk Art Church. Measures 19" by 16" by 4 1/2" approximately
