Hello Meggie, Thank you very much for choosing Mearto with your online appraisal and for your patience. I apologize for the inconvenient long-waiting, but it is all solved now. 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.
