This luxurious throw is woven in the Andes from sumptuous hand-spun alpaca. The striking contrast of weave is typical of the Aymara woven textures, and the design of the throw is inspired by the traditional method of making a poncho in two halves.

Moluche textiles are crafted entirely by hand by the Aymara and Quecha artisans in Chile and Peru using one of the most luxurious and ancient of fibres: alpaca. These limited edition pieces are hand made following an age-old process which respects the local ecology.

Alpaca has a wider variety of natural coloured fleeces than any other fibre producing animal. Each colour is obtained from the naturally coloured fibre, or dyed using vegetable dyes from locally grown herbs and plants.

Any subtle colour variations and irregularities that occur in the weave give a rich tonal variation, making each piece unique, and are characteristic of this textile. Some differences will occur between repetitions of the same design.
