| Description: |
| Our traditional hand-loomed wool blankets are from Bolivia. Durable enough to use as a rug and also great thrown over the foot of a bed, they are woven in the town of Vallegrande in the mountains of Santa Cruz, famous for its horses, the beauty of its women, and where Che Guevara finally met his end. The blankets are sturdy, beautiful and woven by hand with sheep wool from local herds. Each rug has minor variations in size and shades. |

| Made By: Artisans in Bolivia |
| Pfeifer Exclusive: This original design is only available online and at our retail studio in beautiful New Mexico, USA. |
| Socially Conscious:The rugs are sourced for Pfeifer Studio by former Peace Corps volunteers, Kathryn Krubsack and Kristen Evans. In 2004 they arrived in at a small village in rural Bolivia and soon fell in love with the 50 families, 20 cows, several monkeys, and dozens and dozens of children, who accepted them into their lives as their own.
By supporting the art of Bolivia you are also strengthening and preserving some of the most fascinating indigenous cultures of the Americas, and you are directly benefiting the producers by buying from artisan cooperatives.
Additionally, a percentage of profits is donated to youth music education projects in Bolivia. We think that you will be enchanted with the unusual beauty of these hand woven saddle blankets. Each piece carries cultural and historical traditions found nowhere else and brings with it the story of its unusual journey to reach you. |
| Returns: We love this design and think that you will too, so we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all online purchases. |
