Alfredo Falcon "This makes us a family entirely devoted to the world of textiles, and we have been for generations." "I was born in the capital of Peru on August 7, 1968. When I was but a small child I learned from my parents the best weaving techniques – like me, they had learned them from their own parents. This makes us a family entirely devoted to the world of textiles, and we have been for generations. "Nowadays I combine weaving by hand and on classic machinery, remaining true to Inca and colonial motifs. I would like for the world to receive through my work high quality products, with modern colors and traditional motifs. "I hope you enjoy them! "I have been working with Novica for seven years. My workshop is located in the district of Huaycan, a place of refuge for many immigrants who fled central Peru during the times of terrorism. Before collaborating with Novica, I had a small workshop in an industrial park that the government gave me on credit, a place where small producers could work with dignity. It wasn't properly roofed, and its production capacity was limited. I designed and made clothing. "My market was limited to a few local shops, and to a single small foreign client who purchased my work from time to time. After joining Novica, my sales increased significantly, and my workshop began to undergo an enormous change. I purchased better tools and materials. My production capacity has grown tremendously, and my work has gained considerable popularity. This recognition has permitted me to promote my work in new markets, as well. But Novica will always remain my preferred customer. "Thank you very much my friends." |

I bought your lovely "Mountain View" Alpaca wool scarf, hat and gloves for my daughter, Colleen. She attends college in the mountains of West Virginia, where it is cold and snowy, probably like the mountains of Peru. She wears her ensemble everywhere, and tells me that she gets compliments wherever she goes. It is beautiful, light and sporty - a chic combination. Thank you so much!

Thank you! - Simona L, New York Dear Mr. Falcon, Your Alpaca wool poncho, 'Chocolate Mint' arrived today and I couldn't be more pleased with the quality, color, and texture of this beautiful poncho.

Thank you, thank you for making such beautiful wraps and ponchos for us to wear. - P B, Eugene, Oregon USA Dear Mr. Falcon, I just received your beautiful alpaca wool poncho "Casual Black" and I cant begin to express how beautiful this poncho is. The picture on Novica really does not do it justice. The colors are just beautiful and I especially like the length which is longer than most ponchos. It hits me below the knee and this is very nice! The knit is beautiful and I especially like what you did with the knit in the middle of the stripe that goes around the poncho. Beautiful colors!
