Peru Weaving ''Wari Terraces Butterflies'' E Sulca. Measures 46'' x 60'' without fringe and has woven-in signature on the lower left corner. Eddie Sulca is Peru's preeminent weaver of the old Wari weavers' technique and effect. While many try to duplicate his three-dimensional art, none succeed. This weaving is titled, ''Wari Terraces With Butterflies.'' Sulca's grandfather learned the Wari technique from the last of them, in 1923. The pattern represents the land terraces made by the ancient Andean people (Inca) and the butterflies represent the fragility of the entire mountain ecosystem. Using finely woven Peruvian sheep's wool (95%) and long staple cotton (5%), Sulca dyes the fiber with hand gathered natural leaves, berries, branches, roots and insects which produce colors unachievable by other dyes. The weave is very tight - approximately 160 threads per inch or more and the threads are very fine; never coarse or fuzzy. The weavings can be washed in cold water. This is an aboslutely stunning and unique art piece anyone would be proud to hang on thier wall.
