Story Behind the Art:
Tiberio Gonzales was offered a job cutting gemstones by mere chance. 'Thanks to my teacher, I learned the craft. I love the gems of Peru with all their beautiful colors. I combine them with silver; this is how each of my creations is born. I try to use these natural elements in different and unusual ways, with the authenticity of Peru inherent in my style. My inspiration comes from the stones themselves.'
