This dual-chambered hollow clay replica of a pre-Colombian Peruvian whistling vessel is fashioned in the form of a Sparrow. Sculpted by ethnomusicologist Jose Vitancio Humeres of Peru, it is a replica of an original design. "I think the sounds these instruments make were to create positive energy," says Vitancio Humeres.

Constructed of two chambers, as well as a system of air ducts and aqueducts. The vessel is filled partially with water, and when held and tipped it pushes the air outward to create melodic sounds, depending on the size and number of whistle holes. The whistle on this piece is functional with a strong sound.  Please note that due to the handmade nature the color may vary.  Exquisitely hand made in Peru.
