Tucuman Sky Tapestry
The design of this tapestry is inspired by local landscapes and pictures a rural town in Tucuman at dusk, where the sky turns a beautiful pink color. You have to see it to believe it.
This tapestry was woven in Tucuman, Argentina, on a traditional loom using lambswool that is spun and dyed by hand. This was made by Angela Balderrama who comes from a family of weavers and artisans.

So cute!
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.
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.
