Meet the scarf you'll reach for every time the temperature drops. The Snow Ultra Plush Alpaca Scarf by Slate + Salt is an oversized wrap made from ethically sourced Peruvian alpaca — featherlight, genuinely warm, and softer than cashmere. Whether you're keeping it for yourself or wrapping it up as a gift, this is the kind of piece people hold onto for years.
✨ Features
- 🌿 Premium Alpaca Blend: Crafted from 89% alpaca and 11% polyamide for a silky-smooth finish with just the right amount of structure.
- 📏 Generously Oversized: Measures 80" long x 24" wide — plenty of room to wrap, drape, or layer as a shawl.
- 🪶 Featherweight Warmth: Microscopic air pockets within the alpaca fiber create natural insulation without the bulk.
- 🧶 Resists Pilling: Alpaca's unique fiber structure means it holds its look and feel wear after wear.
- 🤲 Handmade in Peru: Each scarf is handcrafted by artisanal farmers in the Peruvian highlands using traditional methods passed down through generations.
- 🎨 One of a Kind: Slight natural variations in handcrafted goods mean every piece is uniquely its own.
💚 Benefits
- 🌍 Sustainably Sourced: Alpaca fiber is widely regarded as one of the most natural and eco-conscious fibers available. Alpacas roam freely in the Andes, are not harmed during shearing, and their soft padded feet don't damage the grassland beneath them.
- ✋ Softer Than Cashmere: Alpaca is naturally smoother and softer against the skin — without the itch often associated with wool.
- 🎁 A Thoughtful Gift: Beautifully tactile and genuinely useful, this scarf makes a meaningful gift for anyone who values quality, craftsmanship, and conscious living.
- 🏔️ Rich Artisan Heritage: Buying this scarf directly supports small-scale farmers in the Peruvian Andes who practise sustainable, traditional farming — a craft with roots stretching back to the Inca civilisation.
- 🚫 No Harsh Chemicals: Alpaca is processed without harsh chemical treatments, keeping it as natural as possible from farm to finished product.
👗 How to Care For It
- Hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent.
- Reshape gently while still wet.
- Lay flat to dry — avoid hanging, which can stretch the fabric.
