Quina & Cantuta

Quina & Cantuta showcases a remarkable selection of luxurious, crafted, decorative and functional pieces from Peru that combine nature, style and quality.

Quina & Cantuta takes its inspiration from two Peruvian native resources. Both emphasise the unique nature of the pieces of art and design that Quina & Cantuta brings to the UK.

The Quina is a type of tree that represents Peruvian flora resources in their national shield. Its presence in Peruvian history since Pre-Columbian times and during the whole Colonial era, made it become an important natural symbol for the country. The Cantuta flower is the Peruvian national flower. The Incas, impressed by its beauty, promoted its farming in all their domains and consecrated it to their god, the Sun. This is why this flower is also known as The Incas’ sacred flower.

Quina & Cantuta’s collections only utilise the finest, native and original materials and the products are made using processes, which respect our environment. The large majority of our collection are handmade using traditional centuries old techniques, but have been designed with innovative, modern and sophisticated concepts, making each distinctive product a true piece of art.
