Chancay Culture Cotton Gauze Lace. Woven Head-Cloth. Spanish export licence - 102 cm
Gauze panel Pre-columbian thinly woven Chancay artwork textile tapestry. Tapestry is held together on a canvas sheet that can be removed from the artwork.
A beautiful thinly woven head-cloth made with panels of gauze weave joined in with humanoids, seabirds and geometric figures. Repeating embroidered outlining creates designs consisting of two figures in diagonals.
The added embroidered outlines follow around the figures; cotton warp and weft threads, highly over-twisted. Very good condition. Tapestry held together on a canvas sheet that can be removed from the artwork. It has a very intricate and odd design that makes this particular piece very unique.
Artwork with well-documented legal provenance and Spanish Historical Patrimony Export Certificate. The Ministry of Culture from Spain asks all sellers for invoices or other documentation able to prove the legality of each item before providing an import or export license.
