Peruvian Andean Handwoven Table Textile with...

Updated August 22, 2026

Traditional Animal Motifs – Original. This distinctive Peruvian Andean table textile is an original handcrafted decorative textile, featuring a richly patterned composition inspired by the traditional visual language of the Peruvian Andes. The textile is organized into vertical decorative bands combining deep black fields with vivid accents of red, green, blue, pink, and white. Two prominent woven panels feature a lively succession of stylized Andean animals, birds, floral elements, and geometric motifs, creating a rhythmic narrative across the surface. Among the most distinctive elements are representations of birds and native animals, arranged alongside traditional geometric forms and colorful linear borders. The intentionally stylized character of the figures gives the textile a strong folk-art quality while preserving the visual character associated with traditional Andean weaving. The contrasting black background emphasizes the brightly colored woven imagery, while narrow multicolored stripes and decorative borders frame the composition and provide visual balance. Created as both a functional table textile and decorative work, the piece may be displayed on a table, cabinet, chest, or other surface, or appreciated as a collectible example of Peruvian textile art and traditional Andean-inspired design. AUTHENTICITY This is an original handcrafted Peruvian textile. Accompanied by a Certificate of Originality. MATERIALS AND TECHNIQUE Traditional textile construction with woven multicolored animal, floral, and geometric motifs, decorative bands, and contrasting black fields. DIMENSIONS Measurements are currently unavailable. COLLECTION NOTE Carefully selected in Peru by Gallery Arts & Auctions Co. for its vibrant imagery, decorative composition, and distinctive Andean character. The combination of stylized animals, birds, floral imagery, geometric ornamentation, and strong contrasting colors makes this textile an attractive example of traditional Peruvian decorative textile art, suitable for both display and collection.
