Spirit of the Andes - Q’ero Handwoven Bag

$75.00

This handmade bag is woven by the Q’ero people of the Peruvian Andes, keepers of one of the most ancient textile traditions in the world. Each piece is crafted on a backstrap loom using handspun, naturally dyed wool, with patterns that carry symbolic meaning rooted in Andean cosmology.

The Q’ero Nation is an Indigenous community living high in the Peruvian Andes, often called the “last Inca ayllu” (family lineage). For centuries, the Q’ero have preserved their language (Quechua), weaving traditions, and spiritual practices in close relationship with the Apus (sacred mountain spirits) and Pachamama (Mother Earth).

Their textiles are not just art, they are carriers of story, prayer, and identity, passed down from generation to generation. By choosing this bag, you are supporting the continuation of this living tradition and honoring the resilience of the Q’ero people.
