Kerfü Alpaca Pillow
Product Description
· 100% alpaca wool
· Hypoallergenic
· Natural colors
· Soft and durable
Each pillow is made with natural alpaca wool using unique patterns, and has beautiful hand knotted fringes.
This special pillow is handmade by women from the Mapuche commnunity in Panguipulli, south of Chile. These alpacas are raised in the Huincul Farm in the same region of Chile.
Let us tell you a little about the delicate process behind these throws...
Since its origins, centuries ago, this tradition has been dominated by women. First, exquisite alpaca wool is handspun with a kuilo. Then, using a witral or vertical loom, they hand weave these beautiful textiles.
Since the artisans use only alpaca wool in its natural color for these textiles and due to the difficult and time-consuming hand process described above, these pillows are unique pieces of art.
How can we describe alpaca wool? Soft, flexible, and resilient, are some of the words that come in mind after feeling the texture in your hands. Alpaca wool is a rare and extremely fine fiber. It is also hypoallergenic because of the absence of lanolin in the fleece. All these qualities will be protected and enhanced because only natural color alpaca wool is used for these pillows (that means no dyes, whatsoever!).
So bring home a pillow today and give it a cozy touch using them as an accent piece over a sofa or a bed. The beauty of the colors and unique combinations will thrill you.
