It has been awhile since I changed my logo. I really like this format. I am trying to keep the same idea as my previous.
I really like this one. It's an Inca warrior with a bag of some kind with a child inside. Inca Women still carry their children wrapped around their backs as they do daily chores.
For thousands of years the people of the Andes have passed on their knowledge of color dying using natural materials found in nature. Today textiles are often a mix of both natural and synthetic fibers combining old and new traditions. The Inca bag's fabric is boiled for varying periods, the yarn is dyed according to the natural materials used and the colour desired. Ingredients, like salt or urine are used to create multiple shades and colours, alter hues, or intensify colour saturation. After the yarns have dried, they are re-spun and made into balls of yarn. Materials and colors that are used depend on the region and personal preference of the dyers and weavers. Such a wonderful thing to know...

Inca art forms had a tendency towards austerity. Weaving, especially in vicuña wool, was of the highest quality, but it lacked the inventiveness of the weaving of coastal peoples. The cutting of semiprecious stones was a widely practiced art, although the Inca stone-cutters depended on the coastal trade for shell and stones. Goldsmithing was an Inca specialty. Almost all the gold mines worked in historical times had been previously mined by the Incas. Smiths who worked gold and silver lived in a special district and were exempt from taxes. The best examples of their art have not survived, since all went into the crucible of conquest; but according to the Spaniards who first saw it, Cusco seemed ablaze with worked gold. Some of the buildings were covered with gold plate imitating...
Durability:
Wool fabrics are very durable and flexible. They can withstand being bent 20,000 times without breaking. In comparison, cotton breaks after 3,000 bends, silk after 2,000 bends, and rayon can only be bent 75 times without breaking. Wool is a hard wearing fiber that retains it's good appearance if given adequate care. It's natural elasticity means that the fibers will stretch under pressure rather than break, and since the fibers "spring back" when the pressure is released, woolen fabrics tend to retain their shape after time. The natural elasticity also makes woolen fabrics resistant to tearing.
Our INCA BAG collections are made with wool fibers so that you get the best quality and durability on each item.
