Andes Painted Chirp Water Whistles

These hand-painted clay chirp whistles come from a long tradition of Andean artisanship, each one shaped and painted by hand to reflect the vivid color of Peruvian folk culture. A small measure of water inside transforms a breath into a lifelike bird song — the pitch shifts and warbles with every movement, making each performance unrepeatable. They serve equally as meditative sound tools, classroom instruments, and objects of beauty on an altar or shelf.
