Tapestries have long been used to fill Peruvian homes with colour and warmth. Indeed, weaving tapestries is an art form that has been passed from generation to generation, and by purchasing a contemporary tapestry from Peru, you are helping to keep the Peruvian tradition alive.
At Maximo Laura, we have created our unique contemporary tapestries using the millenary technique. This uses blended yarn rather than the solid colored yarn used traditionally. Unlike the traditional weaving methods, this gives our Peruvian tapestries a 3D effect where the art can be fully explored and touched. It also gives the tapestry a great modern twist and adds a beautiful aesthetic to any wall space. Browse our range of designs in our online contemporary tapestry gallery.
