Working on a traditional loom with alpaca blend yarns on a cotton warp, artisan David Laura Zanabria from Peru creates this magnificent tapestry. It depicts a chakana or Inca cross at the center, surrounded by the Inca Trinity: a condor, a puma and a snake. For the Inca, these creatures represented their cosmovision: the world of the gods, the world of the living, and the world of the dead.

This tapestry is absolutely exquisite! The colors are bright and eye-catching - almost like those neon fish that dwell in the deepest parts of the ocean -- and the quality is top-notch -- the yarn is woven closely together, so it looks like a smooth and uninterrupted scene -- and the wool itself is thick, supple and substantial. I love this fishy fantasy, straight from the creative mind of David Laura Zanabria. It will add so much warmth and personality to our living area! Thank you too, for the lovely gift wrapping, complete with a lovely handmade worry doll, and for the wonderful postcard and thank you note. Thank YOU!
