This mesa cloth so soft, made of pure alpaca fibers. Matilda Pacsi Succle created this soft, gentle mesa, decorated in bright contrasting Inti symbols, orange and green, pink and black. The Inti symbols represent the sun, and the gentle striated bands represent the agricultural fields. The textile is soft with an overall balance and tone that evokes peace. Matilda wove this sacred mesa by kneeling on the ground outside her home in the Quico village of Q’eros at 12,000 feet in elevation. Your purchase helps her family and her community build a more sustainable life and supports traditional Q’ero culture. 33 x 25.5 inches. 84 x 65 cm.
