Hunter's comment
Hand-made from organic materials such as clay, wood, leather and wool, the ‘mapuguaquén’ clay speakers combine ancestral pottery tradition with state of the art wireless audio-technology. meaning ‘the sound of the earth’ in mapuche — a language spoken in south-central chile and west central argentina — mapuguaquén are produced in limited, numbered series in the south of chile, using traditional craft techniques, natural materials and regional aesthetics.
The speakers are made of 80% biodegradable materials and — together with a local NGO — the team plants one native tree for every speaker that is sold. each unit is a completely unique, customized piece of art, made by experienced hands with dedication and precision. with the first limited series selling on kickstarter, mapuguaquén are available as mono, 2.1 speaker system and stereo speakers.
