Hummingbird Motif Geometric Wool Tapestry from Peru, "Hummingbird Geometry"
Carrying on the tradition of pre-Hispanic textiles, Peru's David Laura Zanabria creates this vibrant tapestry. He works on a traditional loom with wool to hand-weave this tapestry, which features a colorful geometric zigzag motif with hummingbird patterns. For the artist, hummingbirds carry a very powerful spiritual significance. White fringe dangles from the bottom of this tapestry.

"Gorgeous!"
This wall tapestry is such a quality piece that I hate to have to return it. Unfortunately, the colors are much more vibrant than I anticipated and just wont work in the room it was intended for. I will continue to explore other items made by this artisan.

"A truly magnificent piece!"
The tapestry just arrived and, although I originally planned to incorporate it as a wall hanging, I have placed it under my dining table which has a glass top and is surrounded by six black leather chairs - it is truly magnificent and I have already had compliments!
