These are so gorgeous, very soft, and high quality. I have two now - I ordered a second because the first was so nice and led to many compliments. They've brought a lot of dimension to both of my bedrooms. I love them so much that I hope you eventually get more in so I can put another in my ceramic studio!
Love this tapestry so much that I'm thinking about getting a second! Wonderful quality, sweet personal note with the box, and everyone who uses my guest room loves the wall hanging.
My tapestry is definitely beautiful, but the coloring is very different than what I thought it would be. I understand each one is unique, but the colors are mostly different on the one I received compared to the photos posted for the product.
Cornelio and co spin the wool into yarn using home-made wheels, dye the yarn using primarily natural pigments, and then weave intricate patterns on artisanal looms. The result is outstanding.
Hand-knitted and embroidered sweaters made from sheep and llama wool.
