Peruvian Handwoven Wool Textile with Pre-Columbian Figural Motifs
Handwoven wool textile from Peru featuring two stylized anthropomorphic figures rendered in vivid orange against a field of natural undyed wool in tan, ivory, and charcoal. The composition draws on Pre-Columbian iconography, with stepped fret borders, zigzag lightning forms, and geometric framing devices flanking the central figures. The flat tapestry weave shows variation in tone consistent with hand-spun, naturally dyed yarns.
Original sewn-in maker's tag reads "Sheep Wool 100% Hand Made in Peru" and remains intact at one corner.
