Bold and luminous, the vigour of the color gradients contrasts with the intense softness of baby alpaca, a fiber as rare as it is luxurious. Made from fibers from the best breeders of the Peruvian Altiplano, the Essential a Mano cushion covers are hand woven and dyed. Baby alpaca is the rarest, finest and most luxurious quality of alpaca. It does not come from baby animals, but from the first shearing of the alpaca, which occurs when the animal is 1 to 2 years old, and also from a careful selection among thousands of animals across the Altiplano. This will be the finest quality produced by the animal. Today, we work with 34 communities of breeders based over 4,500 above sea level, where the best quality alpaca is found. This is why each cover is unique with the inexpressible charm of exceptional craftsmanship. The Essential a Mano cushion covers will go perfectly with plaids from the same collection, for elegant successful decoration. The Essential a Mano cushion is also available as a throw and scarf.
