Description

Hello,

When I lived in Chile I was gifted these pieces of mummified cloth.  They were taken from the Nazca desert in Peru.  It is now illegal to remove these from the country as they are considered part of the national treasure. I also have a small chain of woven children connected by their hands, like paper dolls. 

Are these worth anything for collectors or would they be donation pieces to a museum?

Thank you!

Bradley

 

There are reflections as I had them properly mounted to protect them from moisture.  The shortest is 6" and the biggest is 2ft long.
