Peruvian Frazada Rug in Felicidad Color:Jewel The artisan of this frazada

The artisan of this frazada tells a story in its pattern: if you look closely

a drawstring close

These hat tassels are intricately beaded textiles

there are sometimes "imperfections" and variations

As with all handmade and vintage items

Peruvian Frazada Rug in Felicidad Color:Jewel The artisan of this frazadaThis vintage frazada was handmade over 50 years ago in the Andean highlands of Cusco Peru. Traditional frazadas are woven on a backstrap loom, over the course of 1 3 months. They are made in 2 panels that are then stitched together to form the frazada. All natural, made with sheep's and alpaca wool, they are thick and made for warmth and durability in order to protect from the chill of the Andes. This frazada is thick, soft and extra cozy. Each
