What is an Alpaca
Is a long-haired domesticated South American mammal related to the llama, valued for its wool.

The difference between an Alpaca and a Llama (source: Internet)



Why use Alpaca fibre?
Alpaca has infinite benefits and advantages:
  • Hypoallergenic (Alpaca fibre does not contain lanolin meaning that garments made using pure (100%) alpaca retain that quality. Alpaca fibre is therefore especially good for babies, children and those with sensitive skin).
  • Extremely durable
  • As soft yet finer than cashmere
  • Excellent thermal qualities
  • Lightweight and lustrous handling
  • Lacks the ‘prickle factor’ associated with wool
  • Resistant to wrinkling
  • Does not retain water
  • Resistant to stains
  • Resistant to odours
  • Fire Resistant
  • Wicks away body moisture
  • Resistant to solar radiation
  • Easy to clean
  • Naturally antibacterial (Because lanolin is absent from alpaca fibre, pure alpaca clothing repels dust mites and other organic matter which might trigger allergies).

  • British Made
  • Eco-friendly
  • Contemporary Designed
  • Sustainable Fashion
  • Royal Alpaca (They use only the highest quality grade of alpaca fibre in their range – Royal Alpaca is considered even smoother, softer, stronger and warmer than cashmere. Less than 1% of all alpaca fibre production in the world can be classified as Royal Alpaca which allows them to bring a collection both rare and exclusive).
