Also, they brought beads from Murano, an Italian island next to Venice, where the greatest production of glass and crystal, between the XVIII and XIX, took place. The Spanish technique of stained glass windows, of great Arab influence, were copied and 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 and on painted glass) and the polychrome style (using multiple multicolored hues). These styles can be observed in museum collections, in decoration of church altars and convents of different regions of the Perú. ►SOME OF OUR AWARDS ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ♦ 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 and PROMPERU (2014) ♦ Prize: Most outstanding company in the category "EXPORTA EASY" by Ministry of Foreign Trade of Peru and 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 instagram.com/decorcontreras
