Our Products
Threads of Peru offers a range of traditionally hand-woven products that are commonly made by indigenous weavers. Most of them have deep historic roots and are intimately tied to the culture and daily lives of the weavers. A few have evolved from market demands of visitors and the potential uses for other cultures.
“Each item has been selected by knowledgeable people who visit communities and purchase the highest quality work that weavers have to offer.”
When we buy directly from the communities we pay the weavers directly at their price. When we purchase from NGOs who work with communities we pay the same price, plus an added percentage to fund the activities of the NGOs, which help the communities.
The images on these product overview pages are provided to give you a sense of what the products are and how they might be used. Remember that these are representative images, and that each weaving in one-of-a-kind. You need to refer to our eBay store for the exact nature of a particular weaving.
