The gentle tone of nutmeg distinguishes this elegant shawl by Jorge Priori
Working in luxurious baby alpaca wool, he weaves enchanting textures
Finished with hand-knotted fringe
Renowned for its thermal qualities, alpaca is lightweight yet while possessing an incredible capacity for heat retention
The Story Behind the Mirror
Priori seeks to preserve through his work a tradition that began centuries ago, during the Inca empire. The Incas gave the alpaca an important place in society and religion; alpaca fiber was so highly treasured it was reserved for Inca royalty.
'Our clothes and blankets are created with the 'combed' technique which uses threads of different length and width, with the intention of recreating the type of weave the Incas favored,' explains Priori.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.

When I first saw this in the tightly sealed package I thought "er.... the fabric looks VERY thin (cheap/not warm). But once I took it out and opened it up, while the fabric IS thin, the very attractive subtle pattern in the weave gives it a bit more depth. In addition, while extremely lightweight, it's surprised me how warm it keeps me at my overly-air-conditioned cubicle at work!And the shawl feels SOOOO cozy to wear!Definitely recommend. A perfect neutral color also.
i love this shawl so much. I had always wanted one and this is so perfect with my olive skin tone. shipping was a little slow due
to it being sent from another country but worth the wait. love it!
