{"product_id":"twin-harpy-eagles-with-wings-spread-kuna-mola","title":"Twin Harpy Eagles With Wings Spread Kuna Mola","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwin Harpy Eagles With Wings Spread Mola is a hand sewn textile by a Guna (Kuna) artisan in Panama. Two crested harpy eagles spread their wings across the full width, each bird carrying a small shield on its chest while a stepped maze climbs between them. It has the bold, protective air of a family crest, and it makes a room feel well defended. It is 16 inches wide and 9 inches high, a long shape that fits above a doorway or a headboard. Hang it over your bed or across the top of a bookcase where those wings can stretch out.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMolas are built by stacking several layers of colored cotton, then cutting down through one layer at a time so the colors underneath show through, and turning every raw edge under and stitching it closed by hand. The technique is called reverse appliqué, and a good panel is judged by how fine the stitches are and how many layers deep the cutting goes. This one came from Guna Yala, the San Blas islands off Panama's Caribbean coast, where the designs draw on the birds, fish, plants and geometric patterns of the islands and rainforest. It is ready to frame, mount, or sew into a pillow or a quilt panel, and no two are ever alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1991, TraderBrock celebrates the handcraft of Latin America's indigenous peoples.
