PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Salkantay Baby Alpaca Shawl is a stunning accessory item that will enrich your wardrobe with a touch of Peru!

 This shawl features rich, chocolate earth tones in naturally occurring shades of baby alpaca fiber, with accents of naturally dyed coral pink created with the chapi plant. The Salkantay Baby Alpaca Shawl features designs like alpacas, Spanish ships, stars, flowers and lakes. This combination of designs represents Andean history and the natural world around the weaver, from which they draw their inspiration.
