Nasca Pottery

Nasca, Peru

Nasca4

That's an authentic Nasca pottery! The guy at the shop showed us how the Nasca people made the pots before. The interesting part was how they put on the glaze for the pot... It's not varnish or anything... They used the oils from their faces and then wiped it on the pots to make it shiny, then it gets baked!!! They must be running around a lot before to get enough oils from their faces to glaze the pots... hehehe!
