Hand Made Cotton Arpillera Decorative Mitts Featuring Llamas, "Llama Walk"
Artisan Leonor Quispe of Peru hand makes these decorative mitts in the arpillera style. The backdrop is a section of an Andean blanket on which she appliqués a Peruvian landscape of llamas strolling through a field of cactus by a small pond with ducks. The sun peeks out from the mountains in the background. The back of the mitts is solid white. A loop of yarn topped with a pom pom is attached to the top corner of each mitt for easy hanging. These decorative mitts would make a colorful addition to any kitchen.
Please note: These mitts are for decorative purposes only; they are not heat-proof and are not appropriate for use as hot mitts.

"Spectacular wall hanging"
The picture on the website does not do justice to this gorgeously crafted wall handing. The texture is wonderful with the people, donkey blankets, and flower petals popping off the background. The colors are brilliant. This stunning piece of work exceeded my expectations by a country mile.
