Beautifully finished on all four edges with a typical desing and style known in some regions as nawi awapa, or eye border thought to have special protective qualities. Learn More$190.00 -
Q'ero Andean Carrying Cloth
Like the despacho cloth, the Q'ero use other plain-woven pieces of cloth to carry goods and food. This cloth is an example of the Q'ero carrying cloth, usually woven in more subtle, natural shades and without tassels or pom-poms at the four corners. Previously owned, this cloth bears the signs of wear from its former owner, giving it a classic broken in look. Woven in the high Andes of Peru.
