Beautifully made baby alpaca throw
This is a beautiful throw, made of very soft baby alpaca and large enough for two to snuggle. This is very finely made. I've long wished I could purchase another baby alpaca textile since visiting Arequipa a couple of years ago. It's a very special treat to wrap yourself in the gifts of mother nature. Thanks to the master crafts people, Felipe and team!
Nice colors, great stichwork, and a lot of character
I was somewhat on the fence about how cartoonish the birds looked in the picture, but I love birds and I love purple, so I figured it was worth getting. Up close, you can see just how detailed and perfect the stitchwork is. It also becomes clear that she is depicting these birds in naturalistic poses that I recognize from my own birds. Ms. Perez is clearly both a great seamstress and a great observer of nature, and she also has a good color sense. I also really like the composition on this piece.
