Each one as Unique as an Artist
Silvia and Sonia both possess great talent and surprise us always with each textile art they make. Together with a select group of over 20 women artits, they recreate scenes reflecting their mood, composition talent, cultural background and more than anything their creativity and imagination. Their work is always one-of-a-kind. They hand-stich from scratch colorful landscapes using bits and pieces of recycled fabrics to create their dream-like landscapes. In this cookie cutter world, Lucuma Designs is proud to represent such talent and we hope you will find this original textile art collection refreshing.

Two are Never Alike
When you order an Arpillera from Lucuma Designs, you can be sure that yours will be a unique and one-of-a-kind textile art piece. Each art quilt is bursting with amazing features and details with variations that come from the artists own creativity and imagination. From the colors they see the sky to their arrangement of flowers, your Arpillera is an original work of art and could never be duplicated.

*Different animals, backgrounds and overall details make each of these quilts unique in their own way!

Pick Your Favorite Arpillera
There are simply too many wonderful art quilts to display in our catalog, so we’ve created this page to show the possible variations you can expect when you order a piece from our collection. While most of our customers appreciate the originality, you may prefer to select the exact arpillera that's right for you. We will gladly email you pictures of the ones we have available by your request within 1-5 days.

Thank you for supporting this creative Peruvian tradition!
