Also, they brought beads from Murano, an Italian island next to Venice, where the greatest production of glass & crystal, between the XVIII & XIX, took place. The Spanish technique of stained glass windows, of great Arab influence, were copied & modified by Peruvian craftsmen. They developed new regional styles, such as the andahuaylino (reverse-painted glass frames), the cajamarquino (thoroughly painted glass), the Cusco style (carved wood frames that include painted glass), the mixed style or cuscaja (using gold leaf on the carved picture frames & on painted glass) & the polychrome style (using multiple multicolored hues). These styles can be observed in museum collections, in decoration of church altars & convents of different regions of the Perú. ►OUR AWARDS - ♦ Edmundo Contreras, 1st place winner in the UNESCO Crafts Prize for Latin America / Caribbean (painted glass-1995), ♦ Edmundo Contreras, Received the Medal of Vizcardo & Guzman as a master artisan, awarded by the Congress of the Republic of Peru in 2002. ♦ Winner of the award for best export quality product issued by ICC-MINCETUR PROYECT PERU (2003). ♦ Prize: Most outstanding company in the "EXPORTING ROUTE" by the Ministry of Foreign Trade of Peru & PROMPERU (2014) ♦ Prize: Most outstanding company in the category "EXPORTA EASY" by Ministry of Foreign Trade of Peru & PROMPERU (2016) ►To see more items from my shop, click here: decorcontreras.etsy.com ALL ITEMS ARE SHIPPED WITH TRACKING NUMBER WE WELCOME ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. - You can also find me here: facebook.com/ArtesaniasInkaMakiSac pinterest.com/decorcontreras/ Large Decorative Mirror, Turquoise Octogonal Mirror For Wall Decorative, Peruvian Accent Painted Glass Bathroom Mirror "Navy Floral"
