Alpacas were a cherished treasure of the ancient Inca civilization and played a major role in Incan culture. The Incan kings reserved its cloth for the exclusive use of the royal court.

Alpacas produce one of the world's most luxurious natural fibers. Softer and more durable than cashmere yet warmer and lighter then wool it comes in more natural colors than any other animal fiber on earth. The rarity of alpaca is its only limitation.

Alpaca fiber produces soft, warm and colorful garments that last for generations.
