This finely woven man’s coca leaf bag, traditionally known as a chuspa, originates from the Tarabuco weaving region in the Department of Chuquisaca, Bolivia. Dating from approximately 1930–1960, the piece is meticulously crafted from hand-spun sheep's wool, which is a hallmark of the high-quality fine-fleece production in the Sucre and Tarabuco areas. Measuring a compact 6 inches by 6 inches (15.24 cm x 15.24 cm), the bag is designed for daily or ceremonial use to carry sacred coca leaves, which are central to Andean social and spiritual life.

The textile features a sophisticated arrangement of vertical decorative bands separated by narrow stripes. The central design focus includes repeating horse motifs and complex geometric patterns, which are characteristic of the Tarabuco style. These figures are typically rendered in a dense, warp-faced weave, often utilizing complementary warp techniques to create reversible and highly detailed imagery. The color palette is often earthy yet vibrant, with deep reds, greens, and browns providing a grounded backdrop for the cream or white silhouetted animal forms.
