The artist behind this remarkable piece remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its rich history. Crafted from bronze, these tweezers are a testament to the exceptional skill and artistry of their creator. Their triangular shape is both functional and aesthetically pleasing, showcasing the ingenuity of ancient Peruvian craftsmanship.
