DESCRIPTION: Beautiful Vintage Lot of 6 Peruvian Hand Made, Turned Aromatic Cedar Wood Pens. Great round turned shapes with Brass Precolombian Art and Llama Decor on each of the four sides of the unturned section. Very aromatic. I believe that they are cedar wood. Approximately 6.75" Long. This is an example of hand made Peruvian folk art that was usually unsigned and sold to tourists. Lots of color and textural interest. This is an NOS New Old Stock item from a shop in Santa Fe, NM, that closed around 1985 and has been in storage since then. See the photos.
NOTE: They do not have any moving parts and they come with OLD Peruvian ink cartridges from the 80s. I did not try very hard to get the ink to flow, but they do not write with my casual efforts. You can easily replace the ink cartridges, as they are just press fit in place, if they do not write for you and you want them to be more than just decorative.
MARKINGS: Unmarked. See the photos.
AGE: Circa 1980s.
ORIGIN: Peru.
DIMENSIONS: Approx. 6.75" Tall.
