The mantle, measuring an impressive 162.5 x 272 cm (64 x 107 1/16 in. ), is expertly woven using cotton fabric with a combination of plain weave, brocaded patterns, and complex alternating gauze shots. The intricate design of this textile masterpiece truly mesmerizes the viewer. Delicate motifs and vibrant colors adorn every inch of the mantle, reflecting the exceptional craftsmanship of ancient Peruvian artisans. Each detail tells a story; each thread weaves together centuries-old traditions and cultural significance.
