The birds—rendered in soft cream and blush tones—are set within octagonal forms, creating a dynamic contrast against a saturated ground of deep raspberry, rose, and muted plum.

The surrounding border showcases repeating stepped and cross-like forms, reinforcing the strong graphic language typical of Andean folk textiles. The palette has aged beautifully, with softened hues and subtle tonal variation that add depth and character to the surface.

Measuring approximately 73 inches by 65 inches, the piece has a generous scale that works exceptionally well as wall art. The overall composition reads almost like a woven painting, making it an excellent statement piece for collectors, designers, and interiors that embrace texture and cultural narrative.

Visible repairs throughout attest to the textile’s age and history of use, enhancing its authenticity and presence rather than detracting from it. See less
