Altiplano Sand Blanket

Wrapping yourself in a textile made of pure llama wool means embracing the majestic landscape of the Andes and the work of its native communities.

Our blankets are woven from wool from llamas raised in the Argentine Puna, at an altitude of 3,500 m, adapted to these lands, which do not erode the soil they inhabit. This makes it one of the most sustainable fibers for its environment.
The entire process, from shearing to final finishing, is carried out within artisan communities, using ancestral techniques passed down from generation to generation for centuries.

– Llama fiber is unique for its extraordinary softness and fineness. It is fireproof, stain-resistant, hypoallergenic, has a great thermal insulation capacity and is an excellent barrier against the wind.
– Comfortable, warm, light, soft and durable.
– Technique: flat weaving on a Creole loom
– Natural colours. Virgin wool, undyed.
