Material & Ethical Sourcing
Most of the baby alpaca wool used in each handwoven poncho, including your Cream Alpaca Cape, comes from herds owned by the women of the Q’ori T’ikas Weaving Collective, ensuring the highest quality and supporting their sustainable practices. Our handwoven baby alpaca capes and ponchos are all one-of-a-kind & made of 100% ethically-sourced baby alpaca wool. “Ethically-sourced” means that zero alpacas were harmed in the process. Alpacas live in some of the coldest regions of the Andes mountains, and we source our fur exclusively from babies that die naturally from exposure to the harshness of the elements or during childbirth turning something that would otherwise be considered as “waste” and turning it into wearable art.
