Leoncio Veli and his family are well-known artisans from Peru. Veli's works are in the collection of the University of British Columbia's Anthropology Museum, among others.

He starts with an ordinary dried gourd and uses a fine chisel to carve intricate designs. He then passes a smoldering wooden stick over the surface to create a variation in the colors.
