Guatemalan Hand Woven Multicolored Geometric Wool Area Rug, "Cuxliquel Volcano"
Handwoven from 100% wool fibers through a process that takes between two and three weeks to complete, this area rug from Guatemala depicts multicolored geometric motifs between stripes of maize, light olive, and rose. Inspired by the designs of their ancestors, the rug is crafted by Momosteco Weavers of Guatemala, who work in the time-honored traditions of wool weaving that have been passed down since the days of the Spanish Conquest. The designs present on this rug depict the powerful nature of the Cuxliquel Volcano, which rests near the artisans' hometown.

"Exquisite"
The colors of this rug are indescribably vivid, rich, and beautiful. I would like to have several of these rugs, scattered around my house like rose petals! Simply gorgeous. Yes, it would make a fabulous wall-hanging, but I do have mine in a small guest bathroom and its stunning. Truly great craftsmanship and well worth the price.

"small Guatemalan rug"
Very beautiful style, but not very durable, and the weaving is loose. prone to moth damage, unfortunately. I use it outdoors to protect other wool items from moth damage. I love the colors, though!
