Isidoro C'cahuantico honors Peru's past with this warm alpaca wool blanket. He replicates the glyphs of the legendary Paracas culture in reversible red and black shades. Flourishing in Peru's south coast, Paracas artists excelled at a variety of art forms.
• About the Artist: Peruvian artisan Isidoro C'cahuantico was forced to migrate in the 1970s when terrorist activities swept his region. 'I found a job as janitor in a textile factory. I was completely fascinated!' he says. 'At night, when everyone had gone, I began to experiment with the looms. The manager caught me and said I should start by learning how to assemble a loom. That was the beginning of a vocation, a great gift that I have now also passed on to my children.'
• The Isidoro C'cahuantico Artisan Collection is brought to you by Novica in Association with National Geographic. This beautiful piece was handcrafted by Isidoro C'cahuantico in Peru. An artisan story card will be included with your purchase.
