The Puno region of Peru is an area well-know for its woven textiles. Native artisan Nestor Yana is proud to carry on the traditions of his home, presenting this throw blanket, woven from an acrylic and alpaca blend for a warm, durable creation. Featuring a textured pattern and a solid denim blue color, the throw is finished with fringes on the ends.

This scarf displays various shades of gray in a classic design by Peru's Felipe Berckholtz. The men's scarf is woven with the wool from the season's first shear, termed baby alpaca and much sought after for its soft, lightweight warmth. The ancient Inca discovered the attributes of this fiber, reserving it for the exclusive use of the aristocracy.
