AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Large handcrafted wall tapestry made from genuine alpaca fur, crafted using traditional Peruvian/Andean artisanal techniques. The central motif features a stylized indigenous figure, rendered in multicolored fur patches with a typical geometric pattern. The intricate workmanship of the individual alpaca fur patches creates a three-dimensional effect, making the tapestry a true eye-catcher.
The surrounding edge consists of classic Andean step patterns ('Inca Steps'), commonly used in South American textile art. Alpaca fleece is particularly soft, lightweight, and finely glossy – giving the piece a warm, high-quality, and decorative effect.
Ideal as wall decoration in living rooms, chalets, studios, or collections of ethnic art.
