Story Behind the Art:
During the 1970s, Isidoro C'cahuantico was forced to migrate when terrorist activities swept his region. Accepting various jobs, he soon found himself working as a janitor in a textile factory. 'I was completely fascinated with the work they were doing!' Isidoro recalls. 'I became enamored with the textile arts at first sight. At night, when everyone had gone home, I began to look at the looms and machines and to experiment with them. Some days later, one of the weavers complained his machine was never the way he'd left it the night before. The owner asked who kept adjusting the loom, and was surprised to learn the culprit was me. That was the beginning of a vocation, a great gift that I have now also passed to my children.'

Alpaca throw
Absolutely beautiful large throw. Very soft etc. A real conversation piece!

Very pleased.
Initially I hesitated with the purchase of alpaca. Alpaca can be very rough and course. However; this blend of alpaca and acrylic fiber is soft and comfortable. Colors are more muted than the photos here. Still this throw co-ordinates well with dark brown leather and orange walls. Indian art work is unique. For less than $100 the throw is both functional and stylish.

wool afghan
After redecorating my sunken den with leather sofa/chairs, and with a 10-ft wide fireplace, I was looking for something really special to coordirnate with rustic colored leather...this blanket looks great; warm and colorful. Have only used it for about a month, so no long-term usuage results to report.
