- Price
- $162
Wrapped around your shoulders on a cool evening, this scarf feels like nothing else. SLATE + SALT's Black Ultra Plush Alpaca Scarf is handcrafted in the Peruvian highlands by small-scale artisan farmers using traditional methods passed down through generations. Featherlight and genuinely warm, it's the kind of piece you'll reach for again and again — and it makes a thoughtful, lasting gift for anyone who appreciates quality and craftsmanship.
✨ Features
- 🦙 Luxuriously soft fibre: Made from 89% alpaca + 11% polyamide — softer than cashmere, warmer than lamb's wool, and far less prone to pilling.
- 📐 Generous oversized dimensions: 80" long x 24" wide — wear it as a wrap, a shawl, or a classic scarf.
- 🪶 Surprisingly lightweight: Microscopic air pockets within the alpaca fibre create exceptional insulation without any added bulk.
- 🎨 Rich, deep black: Alpaca fibre holds dye beautifully and retains its natural lustre, so the colour stays true wash after wash.
- 🤲 Handmade in Peru: Each scarf is crafted by artisans in the Peruvian Andes, with slight natural variations that make every piece genuinely one of a kind.
- 🌿 Sustainably sourced: Alpaca are free-grazing animals whose soft padded feet cause minimal impact on the land. No harsh chemicals are used in production.
💛 Benefits
- Stay comfortably warm on chilly evenings without the weight of a heavy wrap.
- Enjoy the silky-smooth feel of a fibre the fashion world considers one of the most natural and ethical available.

- Feel good about what you're buying: every purchase supports small artisan farming communities in the Peruvian highlands.
- Give it as a gift with confidence — this is a piece that feels considered, personal, and built to last.

About SLATE + SALT
Slate + Salt is a socially conscious lifestyle brand offering a curated collection of modern, one-of-a-kind pieces handcrafted by artisans around the world. Their collections include jewelry, accessories, textiles, and decorative objects — all created using traditional techniques and fair trade practices.
Their mission is simple and powerful: to connect modern design with ancient craftsmanship, while supporting dignified work opportunities in communities facing extreme poverty.
Slate + Salt works closely with small social enterprises and Fair Trade cooperatives to ensure that every product supports ethical production, fair wages, and long-term economic empowerment — especially for women artisans.
Every item has a story.
Behind each piece is a person, a family, and a community. By choosing ethically produced goods, you help artisans remain in their villages, support their families, educate their children, and preserve cultural traditions that might otherwise disappear.
Because all products are handmade and often hand-dyed, each piece is naturally unique. Slight variations are part of their beauty — a reminder that these are not mass-produced objects, but human creations made with care.
Slate + Salt was founded by an avid traveler who fell in love with the people, cultures, and craftsmanship she encountered across developing countries. Through deep relationships with artisan groups and Fair Trade partners, the brand brings meaningful, ever-evolving collections to a global community that values beauty with purpose.
At Clozist, we are proud to feature Slate + Salt because their work reflects what we believe in: products that are beautiful, ethical, meaningful — and that create positive impact through everyday choices.
