This herringbone scarf made of baby alpaca and manufactured in Peru has a classic-modern design and a noble shine. Thanks to its flexibility, it is very comfortable to wear around the neck and can be worn in various ways. A favorite piece with textile tradition, made in Peru.
Tradition and sustainability come first
Our baby alpaca scarves are made locally in several communities in the Andes. We adapt our designs to the production capabilities of each community, thus achieving a collection that expresses the local culture and resources of South America in each design.
Anti-allergy – Warm – Soft – Breathable – Dirt-repellent
The absence of lanolin, which occurs naturally in sheep, makes alpaca fiber hypoallergenic, making it an important choice for people with sensitive skin. Alpaca fibers are five times warmer and stronger than sheep wool, as they can retain more heat due to the air pockets they contain and are also lighter and more breathable than other animal fibers. Alpacas are animals that live in the extreme conditions of the Andean highlands of South America: to adapt to these harsh climatic conditions, they develop special protection: a long, fine coat that does not retain water and is particularly warm. After all, the noble alpaca wool has a high self-cleaning power: it is naturally dirt-repellent.
