"Looks lovely"

I gifted this to a family member who found it too overly scratchy to use.

"Only had this one day and it is now my go to scarf"

Lovely quality, color and feel. Just the right length and size for me. The herringbone pattern is more visible than in the photos which I think makes it even nicer.

"Buyer Beware!!"

I ordered this item and received it today. It is NOT 70% Alpaca and 30% Silk. According to the tag on the item I received It is 40% alpaca, 25% cotton, 25% modal and 10% nylon. I would have been happy if it was at least 70% Alpaca, but less than half of it is made of Alapca. I had reservations about ordering from this site for the first time and should have followed my instincts. It is extremely disappointing to spend so much money on one thing and get something else that is not equivalent to what I thought I was purchasing. This is false marketing. Do not be deceived!

"My mother loved this shawl !"

My mother loved this shawl. I thought it was very elegant, and nice for a chilly night out. She lives in Florida, where normally its warm, but at night it can get a bit chilly. Whats nice is you can take it off if you get warm and stick it in your handbag. I like the fact that its made from alpaca wool, which is a rarer wool. Also, the color is very pretty and neutral; it pretty much goes with everything.

Preserving Traditions

Preserving Traditions

Raquel and Gregor are dedicated to preserving the traditions woven into Peruvian culture from pre-Incan times. Like many before them, they learned their textile craft from elders in the community and they pass their knowledge to the younger artisans who work with them. Each piece produced in their workshop is woven on a wooden floor loom and finished by hand. Created from natural fibers — alpaca, cotton and silk — their work echoes the natural colors of the Peruvian landscape, reverberating with the rich hues of the mountains, the jungle and the coast.

Moving On Up

Moving On Up

Raquel and Gregor are deeply committed to building a sustainable workshop that offers a flexible supportive environment for the people who collaborate with them, most of whom are women. They have a special room at the workshop for the women to breastfeed or otherwise care for their children. Many of these women work solely for the purpose of being able to educate their children. Raquel and Gregor also have a deep respect for the environment and have installed solar panels in their workshop, a rarity in Peru.

Working with Disabilities

Working with Disabilities

Among the quality control assistants at Raquel and Gregor's workshop is one who is profoundly deaf. The rest of the team takes great pride in the way they have learned to communicate with her. They treasure what she has taught them about communicating with her and with each other.

Microcredit Financing

Microcredit Financing

Raquel and Gregor has received 9 microcredit loans with 0% interest from Kiva and Novica, the first for $1400 and the most recent for $2850. Proceeds were used to buy more silk, cotton and alpaca wool for her shawls and accessories.
