Size: 4 x 3.2 ft. Origin: Bolivia Circa: 1920s Material: Pure Wool This antique Bolivian Aymara woollen textile is a refined example of Andean minimalism and symmetry. Woven by Aymara artisans, it features a rich, deep reddish-brown field flanked by three horizontal bands of intricate geometric patterning. These bands showcase traditional motifs in soft cream, muted red, and sage green, offering subtle contrast against the solid base. The textile’s flat weave and balanced proportions reflect its ceremonial or utilitarian heritage, possibly used as an aguayo or mantle cloth. Its simplicity is its strength, an elegant testament to the enduring visual language of the Aymara people. Authentic vintage and antique Bolivian textiles are hand-woven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique. Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects. Our textiles are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life.
