Provenance
The alpaca is a South American camelid that lives in the heights of the Andes, more than 13,000 feet above sea level. The animal was revered in Inca times and possessed a religious significance; only royalty were allowed to wear the fine textile. Alpaca herds are bred specifically for their fiber, woven into the signature Peruvian textile. Baby alpaca fiber is especially luxurious, soft, and beautiful. This throw was handcrafted in Peru from 100% Peruvian baby alpaca. The alpaca is sheared, leaving the animal unharmed and handled ethically.
This 100% baby alpaca woven throw is 50" H x 70" W, with an additional inch on each end of the length for the delicate eyelash fringe. The piece is embroidered with cotton thread and adorned with our signature gold St. Frank plate. Each blanket is packaged in an embossed gift box. Dry clean only.
All orders placed after 2 PM PT will be processed on the next business day. Allow 2-7 business days for delivery for standard shipping. Expedited shipping options are available at checkout.
