This vintage Peruvian tapestry wool kilim is a striking and vibrant textile that beautifully reflects Andean artistic traditions.

The tapestry is woven in a lively palette of earthy tones, ochre, rust, green, blue, purple, black, and cream, creating a bold visual impact against the natural wool background. The figure's costume is intricately detailed with crosses, birds, and other traditional Andean motifs, showcasing expert craftsmanship and cultural symbolism.

Finished with fringe on both ends, this kilim is a captivating decorative piece. It is ideal as a wall hanging or accent textile, bringing warmth, colour, and a touch of Peru's rich cultural heritage to any space.

Authentic vintage and antique South American kilims are handwoven with cotton or wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.

Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to these kilims' handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.

Our kilims are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. In addition, we advise using a rug pad with a grip back to keep your rug in position and to smooth out any wrinkles from shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your kilim from deterioration and, therefore, extend its life.
