Preserving the Art of Hand-Carved Peruvian Gourds 🎨

Founded in 1988 in Huancayo, Peru, Kuntur Designs is a family-run brand dedicated to preserving and innovating the traditional art of gourd carving (burilado). This intricate craft has been passed down for generations, with Don Ponciano Canto mastering the technique from a young age.

Originally, hand-carved gourds featured traditional designs that reflected the customs, stories, and daily life of the Andean region. Today, thanks to the entrepreneurial vision of Katya and Blanca Canto, Kuntur Designs has evolved into a globally recognized brand, offering exclusive, one-of-a-kind gourd art that blends heritage with contemporary creativity.
