Many of the pieces had been collected through the years by grandfather and by my great grandfather Engr. Julio Rivadeneyra who lived in northern Peru central coast near Chiclayo. They have been privately purchased and/or gifted by family members who loved collecting like his cousin, Carlos Williams Leon who was a Peruvian architect and archeologist. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlos_Williams_Le%C3%B3n

Dear Meggie,
Thank you very much for choosing Mearto with your online appraisal and for your patience.
Based on the images, this item is:
A beautiful woven head-cloth made with panels of gauze weave joined with figures (6,5x5").
Pre-Columbian, North Coast Peru, Chancay culture, ca. 800 to 1200 CE
The added embroidered outlines follow around the figures; cotton warp and weft threads, highly over-twisted.
Very good condition.
I would need more close up photos, so I can see the details better, please. Thank you!
Hello David,
Sorry for the delay. I have uploaded more close up photos . Please let me know if there is anything else needed . Thank you
yes, I can surely provide better images. Can you let me know what specifically you are looking for? Are the images to low quality? Do you need more close up photos to show more detail? Is there one piece that you need more photos of or is it the whole batch? Thank you.
