Three Andean coca bags woven by the indigenous Aymara people. The Aymara are a pastoral group of indians that live in the high Altiplano region of Bolivia at about 12,500 feet above sea level. They have been weaving very finely woven warp-faced textiles for millenia. The Aymara have traditionally breed alpacas and llamas for their long staple, lustrous fiber. When possible, they will also collect the remarkably fine and soft vicuna fiber from the wild cousins of their domesticated camelid herds. Vicuna is among the finest animal fiber in the world. The bag with the camel colored ground contains vicuna wool (technically a hair not wool). Vicuna wool is never dyed as the fiber is highly prized among the Aymara and can be recognized by its color and soft, downy texture.. All these bags have natural dyes and were made in the 19th century. Beautiful condition. Very affordable. Others available.
