Reserved for the tunics of the elite, they figured in ancient Andean textiles. This extraordinary tapestry is hand-loomed by David Laura Zanabria. A rod can be slipped through a hem at the top.

"Gorgeous!"
This wall tapestry is such a quality piece that I hate to have to return it. Unfortunately, the colors are much more vibrant than I anticipated and just wont work in the room it was intended for. I will continue to explore other items made by this artisan.

"A truly magnificent piece!"
The tapestry just arrived and, although I originally planned to incorporate it as a wall hanging, I have placed it under my dining table which has a glass top and is surrounded by six black leather chairs - it is truly magnificent and I have already had compliments!
