Your women's vicuna sweater... made with the "wool of the gods"
You're really lucky to find
women's vicuna models in our premium collection. Garments made with the incredible fibre are ever-so rare. Only a few prestigious world-class brands sell it. To our knowledge, there are only 2 other importers of this fibre in Europe.
This little animal belongs to the Camelidae family and was on the brink of extinction until recently. In their day, the Incas were the first to discover the extreme softness of this wool and called it "the wool of the gods". It's believed that the population of this mythical animal at that time stood at over a million. Whereas in the 1960s, it had dropped to just 20,000 animals!
It's only in the last forty years or so that significant measures have been initiated to increase their population. Currently, there are around 300,000 vicuna in the wild and their numbers are constantly increasing. Over half of their total world population now lives on the high Andes plateaus in Peru where the wool for our
women's vicuna collection comes from.
