VICUNA
THE TRADITION
Gathered, never farmed
Vicuña fibre is collected through the ancestral chaccu, a centuries-old Andean ceremony in which wild vicuñas are gently rounded up, sheared by hand, and released. No captivity. No harm. Only respect for the animal and its natural environment.
THE FIBER
The gold of the Andes
Sourced from the high plateaus of the Peruvian Andes, vicuña is the rarest and finest natural fibre in the world. Feather-light, supremely soft, and produced in such limited quantities that it remains a true symbol of quiet luxury
