This expressive Peruvian textile is a dated 1984 Andean folk weaving, handwoven in wool and prominently signed with the initials “JQC.” The composition centers on a grid of floral medallions rendered in soft rose, mauve, and muted lavender tones, framed by a bold geometric border in deeper reds and earthy neutrals.
The color palette has mellowed beautifully over time, producing a painterly surface with subtle tonal variation. The visible date and initials suggest a personal or commemorative origin—common in Andean domestic textiles—adding narrative depth and authenticity beyond purely decorative examples.
Measuring approximately 72 inches by 62 inches, the piece has substantial scale and reads as a woven painting when displayed on the wall. Repairs and wear are evident throughout, reinforcing its history of use and care rather than diminishing its appeal. This is a textile that communicates age, place, and human touch.
Well suited for collectors and designers drawn to folk art, bohemian interiors, and layered, textural spaces.
