£59

Our line of cute alpaca collectables is made from natural and ethically-sourced alpaca fur from Peru. Alpaca fur is an ideal material for teddies and soft collectables since the fur is a hollow fibre, so it’s super cosy and warm yet lightweight. It’s incredibly soft and fluffy – our customers tell us it’s like touching a cloud! We have connections with talented Peruvian artisans who make each of our collectables by hand, so yours is made especially for you!  They have soft fluffy bodies with little ears and felted feet. We don’t use any dyes or bleach on the fur, as we prefer to work with the natural colour of the alpaca. Because of this, there may be variations in the exact shade.

Many of the exclusive products we sell in the Lacorine collection are commissioned in limited numbers and colours. Items can also require considerable time to make.

We endeavour to ship in stock items same day for all weekday orders (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri).  Please note however, that orders placed after 4pm UK time on weekdays may be dispatched the next working day. 

Orders of in stock items placed on weekend days – Saturdays or Sundays – will be dispatched on the following Monday.

Orders of in stock items placed over a Bank Holiday Weekend or on a Bank Holiday Monday will be dispatched two business days after the end of the holiday.

If the item is out of stock, we can arrange for it to be made to order. As production times can vary, we will contact you to let you know the estimated shipping date for the item you have ordered.

Alpaca comes in 22 natural shades. Subtle and beautiful, the alpaca is one of the most highly sought-after natural fibres in the world. The wool and fur from our collections come from 100% sustainably sourced alpaca from the rugged Andes mountains of Peru.

  • The unique structure of our alpaca textile makes items luxuriously soft with a silky sheen. 
  • Alpaca is lighter and warmer than sheep wool.
  • Alpaca does not irritate the skin, often like sheep wool.
  • Naturally water-resistant. 
  • Unlike sheep’s wool, it contains no lanolin, making it hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin conditions. 
  • It is flame-resistant.
  • Unlike cashmere, it resists pilling. 
  • Durable and long-lasting, alpaca is second to silk in strength. Garments made of 100% alpaca fibre are extremely high quality. 
  • Alpaca is sustainable and biodegradable.
