Local shops Alpaca Blend Throw Blanket - Magenta

The ancient Incas of Peru treasured the alpaca fiber and only royalty wore the luxurious delicate fibers knowns as the “Fiber of the Gods.” Alpacas are currently raised shops by individual herdsmen and their families in remote areas of the Andes.

This handmade alpaca blend throw blanket is magenta and white and features an intricate design. This fine quality blanket makes a beautiful bed cover or a cozy throw for reading by the fire while adding color to your bedroom or living room decor. This blanket measures 53” by 65” (without tassels) and 53” by 71” (with tassels).

Exceptional warmth and softness will make winter a pleasure with our luxurious Alpaca blend blankets. It is surprisingly lightweight because alpaca fiber is hollow and allows for natural thermal insulation in cold and warm environments. Alpaca is lighter and warmer than sheep's wool because of its hollowness. It is also softer and sturdier than cashmere.

This alpaca blanket will help support local artisans across Peru.
