Product Description

Slithering through diamond rocks, a double-headed serpent appears in cool blues and greens. Victor Ingaroca stylizes patterns of ancient Peruvian inspiration and weaves this piece with a flawless double view. He uses the kilim, or "slit" technique. The different yarns are not dovetailed or interlocked, but each color field is woven independently of the other and their vertical edges are open. This technique is widely seen on medieval and Renaissance tapestries. Titled "Serpiente Estilizada II" in Spanish. NOVICA, in association with National Geographic, searches the world to work directly with the finest artisan designers.
