Julio and I were neighbors many years ago when he used to take my children to his house and teach them about pottery.
I still visit him, especially when I am looking for a perfect wedding gift. We like having a chat and drinking a cup of tea while I walk around his workshop, admiring his extraordinary work. Inevitably, I end up buying a piece for the bride and groom and another one for myself.
Artist, writer, and included amongst the four best Peruvian traditional ceramists, he has dedicated his life to teaching, researching, and preserving colonial ceramics from Cusco, having published hundreds of articles and several books.
It is a real treat sharing a morning or afternoon with him at his home-workshop at Calle Inca, while he throws fresh clay, paints, and glazes your piece, which you will take home as a memory of your visit with an exceptional artist.
