This authentic Pre-Columbian Inca Pututu is a rare ceremonial trumpet crafted from a natural marine shell composed of calcium carbonate, featuring an expertly modeled clay mouthpiece. These instruments were essential in Inca religious and ceremonial practices, used to communicate with the divine, open ritual spaces, and unite communities through sacred sound.

The shell displays a beautiful mix of earthy brown, ivory, and orange tones, along with a naturally aged patina, making it both a historical artifact and a visually stunning decorative piece. The horn’s structure is fully intact, with its organic form preserved, and the clay nozzle demonstrates careful craftsmanship consistent with ancient Inca techniques.

Used during ceremonies, spiritual offerings, and community rituals, this Pututu carries both cultural and symbolic weight. Its deep, resonant tone was believed to travel through the Andean mountains, reaching the gods and ancestors. Today, it stands as a magnificent representation of Inca artistry and sacred tradition.

Ideal for collectors of ancient Andean relics, museums, or interior designers seeking a spiritual statement piece, this trumpet offers both beauty and authenticity.
