alpaca black

Peruvian artisan Liceth Principe has mastered the ancient textile craft after years of hard work. As an homage to the culture that inspires her every day and to show her expertise to the world, Liceth creates this alpaca and wool blend chullo hat with little tassels dangling happily at the bottom. On top of that, the design features a reversible style, one with a dominant black hue and the other in a grey tone with colourful accents, perfect for a dapper winter.

Cozy and dapper, this hat is a beautiful manifestation of Andean heritage. Knitted from a warm alpaca and wool blend, the chullo hat by Sebastian Alayna Condere features a palette of redwood, black, white and grey shades, all merging in the characteristic earflaps, tassels and classic llama motifs around the piece.

The Andean region's stunning landscapes and unique style merge in a cozy hat crafted by Raul Huacarpuma from Peru. Proud of his heritage, Raul takes inspiration from traditional textiles and knits this soft accessory from alpaca yarns, combining green, pink and red hues in a striped pattern of geometric motifs that complement the design's black base colour with a charming touch.

The artisans of the centre for Traditional Textiles of Cusco draw inspiration from the earthen colours of the Andean Sierra for this beautiful messenger bag. It's hand-loomed from 100% alpaca wool with a traditional Inca geometric pattern in slate grey, russet, black, and sepia. It comes fully lined and features a zipper closure.

The Artisans of the centre for Traditional Textiles of Cusco collective works to maintain traditional Peruvian weaving styles and natural dyeing techniques alive. They raise their own alpacas and llamas and colour the wool using 100% natural dyes. Its founder, Nilda Callañaupa Alvarez, sought out elderly weavers to teach younger apprentices old weaving techniques that were about to be lost forever.

The chakana or Inca Cross is an ancient symbol representing the empire's traditional worldview, symbolizing the union and communication between the natural and spiritual worlds. As a sign present in many classic artworks, Peruvian artisan Waldo Berrios draws inspiration from the figure and creates this alpaca blend hat in a palette of warm and dark hues, with a soft surface that makes it a cozy accessory perfect for this winter.
