Product Description

Alpaca wool throw, Paracas Treasure: Home & Kitchen. The owner asked who kept adjusting the loom, and was surprised beyond belief to learn that the culprit was me! She asked me why I was using the loom, and I replied that I wanted to learn to weave. NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, offers thousands of limited edition and one-of-a-kind gifts, jewelry, and home decor treasures handmade by master artists and artisans throughout the world. Isidoro C'cahuantico honors Peru's past with this warm alpaca wool throw. He replicates the glyphs of the legendary Paracas culture in reversible red and black shades. Flourishing in Peru's south coast, Paracas artists excelled at a variety of art forms. Artisan Info: Isidoro C'cahuantico Mendoza was born on 4 April 1954, in a village near Cuzco. During the 1970s he was forced to migrate when terrorist activities swept his region. Accepting various jobs, he soon found himself working as a janitor in a textile factory. I was completely fascinated with the work they were doing! Isidoro recalls. I became enamored with the textile arts at first sight. At night, when everyone had gone home and I was left alone to sweep and clean, I began to look at the looms and machines and to experiment with them, just out of curiosity. Some days later, one of the weavers complained to the supervisor that his machine was never the way he'd left it the night before. She said that if I really wanted to learn, I should learn to assemble one of the spare looms in the warehouse.
