It's believed to have originated in the Villarrica area during the 20th century. It has been associated with Mapuche culture, though there's no evidence of ancestral roots in that tradition.

Today, the Indio Pícaro is a symbol of Chilean mischief and a collector's item that, beyond its cheeky appearance, reflects the ingenuity and creativity of national craftsmanship.

The perfect gift for:

• Those who enjoy good humor and Chilean mischief
• Lovers of local traditions
• Secret Santa, bachelorette parties and any gift occasion where you want to laugh and have a good time.
• Foreigners looking for unique, quirky objects with local identity
• BBQ house (quincho) housewarmings
• Really, anyone with a good sense of humor who values a handmade, artisanal object.
