Description
Description
Crafted with devotion in the artisan communities of Otavalo, Ecuador, this alpaca throw blanket represents the mastery of a family of four weavers—siblings and their spouses—who carry forward a long lineage of traditional textile craftsmanship.
Each piece begins with carefully selected alpaca fibers, chosen for their exceptional softness and natural sheen. The yarns are wrapped around a large wooden frame, allowing the artisans to plan the layout of every detail, from the color transitions to the overall flow of the pattern. Once the design is mapped out, the loom work begins—every movement deliberate and precise—to create a smooth, durable textile that radiates comfort and elegance.
When the weaving is complete, the throw is gently brushed with a native teasel plant, an age-old technique that enhances the alpaca’s signature silky feel and subtle glow. The blanket is then finished by hand, using a traditional wooden block for pressing and meticulous hand-stitched edges that highlight the dedication behind each creation.
Soft, inviting, and beautifully made, this alpaca throw brings rich texture and authentic Ecuadorian artistry into your home décor. The Denim & Dark Blues palette blends deep navy tones with soft cream accents, making it a versatile statement piece for any space.
Dimensions: 92 x 65 inches
