# Chinchero Shaman Mestana Mesa Cloth (M64-C) - Sacred Andean Textile

## **Chinchero Shaman Mestana Mesa Cloth – Sacred Andean Textile**

Fresh off the hand loom and never used in ceremony, this beautifully finished **Mestana Mesa cloth** has been specially woven for us by Andean artisans. Soft yet strong, it carries the living tradition of high-mountain weaving where every colour and symbol holds meaning.

A **mesa** or **mestana** is a sacred cloth used in prayers, blessings, and healing rituals to hold power objects and medicine stones. _Mesa_ refers to the plains, while _mestana_ reflects the high plains of the Andes — where sky, earth, and spirit meet.

Woven in the traditions of the **Q’ero** and **Chinchero** communities, these cloths form personal altar spaces and medicine bundles, symbolising the relationship between the inner and outer worlds.
