Description: Free shipping anywhere in the United States High up in the Andes, rituals were taking place with the Inca (and possibly earlier) to honor the Gods, as well as other ceremonial occasions. Kero cups, a tumbler shaped vessel, were filled with chicha, a fermented beverage made of corn. These were usually made in pairs for the exchange of the ritual with another person. This terracotta vessel is dark orange in color and has geometric designs throughout. Black vertical lines, with diamonds and circles on two of its sides. Further down are vertical lines perhaps delineating where the hands would be placed when drinking the chicha. This attractive vessel imbues elegance with simplicity. Perfect for the pre-Columbian collector and enthusiast.
