"Utterly extraordinary! More beautiful even than t"
I had been looking at this for years and finally decided to treat myself to it. I am so glad I did. It is even more beautiful - way more beautiful - than shows in the picture. First, the colors are really intense - just gorgeous. Second - something you would never know from the picture - it has a lot of interesting texture. Many of the parts are raised and it gives it an extra depth and interest. I hadnt bought it earlier since we didnt know where to put it and figured wed find someplace. It is so wonderful that we are rearranging other things to give it a featured place in our diningroom. I have 5 other Peruvian hangings and I love them all very much .- but this one is unique in its artistry and originality.

"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!
