content: According to Dr. David C. Ko, a medical doctor and collector of Chinese footbinding shoes, these shoes are not children's shoes, but footbinding shoes. The are from the northern part of the Fujian province. The shoes are made of Japanese cloth. Dr. Ko indicates that the Japanese had already entered Fujian by the time these shoes were manufactured. Ther cloth may be from Taiwan. The shoes have clearly been worn several times. Based on the design and color, they may have been wedding shoes. Dr. Ko dates the shoes to circa 1925. Ko believes these shoes, as well as e329726 and e329728 may have been manufactured by the same woman.

label: Collection Date

content: Joseph Fabish

content: Christian Pettersen

content: Wool blanket, aniline dyes. Weft-faced tapestry weave. There are single color bands woven at top and bottom. The background is garnet red, pattern is orange. The interior design is in the Dechado style, in the Enrededara (S. vine) [flowering Plants in Pots] pattern. Average count: 8 x 16.

content: "The blanket was collected in 2004 in Tulpo pueblo from Carlos Garcia Meza. …enredadera blankets were first woven around Tulpo during the 1940s and 1950s. The designs became popular and spread throughout the blanket weaving region except for Puyalli. Two-colored blankets were also very common to blankets pre-dating the 1920s. As the weavers were able to obtain more dye stuffs colorful blankets began to appear. By the 1950s there was an explosion of colors in blankets from the regions, but by the 1980s the Peruvian economy, weakened after years of neglect by the military who ran the country for more than a decade showed little signs of recovery. With the Sendero uprising and a continued weak economy dye stuffs were not only difficult to purchase but also difficult to obtain. By the mid 1980s through the mid 1990s the predominantly colorful blankets woven between 1950 and 1980 were replaced by blankets woven with just two or three colors. Because of the lack of different colors and based on its weight and overall condition in tandem with single colored wide bands at the top and bottom of the blanket I suggest the blanket is around 20-25 years old at the time of collection. I suggest a date of manufacture of 1985." (Information abridged from the 2-volume manuscript "Age Analysis for the Christian Pettersen Collection of Huamachuco Blankets to the Smithsonian Institution", by Joseph Fabish, January 20, 2009. These volumes are housed at the National Anthropological Archives.)

content: There is no fraying, insect damage, running of dyes or damage. The blanket is weakly positive to light test but demonstrates good weight. The colors remain vibrant. (Information abridged from the 2-volume manuscript "Age Analysis for the Christian Pettersen Collection of Huamachuco Blankets to the Smithsonian Institution", by Joseph Fabish, January 20, 2009.
