Forest Heart Handwoven Cotton Blend Fringed Poncho in Warm Hues

K'amolon K'i K'ojonel

(218)

"The colours remind us of sunrises over the volcano," say the women of the K'amolon K'i K'ojonel association, who create this unique poncho. Working on a back strap loom, this community of women first weave the fabric with cotton and bamboo rayon yarns. The fabric in shades of rust, teal and saffron is then then stitched together to create this simple poncho, which allows the artistry of the fabric to be the hero.

Chinchero Legacy Backstrap Handwoven Men's Alpaca Poncho in Earth Tones

Size: 63" L x 42" W

Center for Traditional Textiles of Cusco

(31)

Vertical bands of earth tones distinguish this classic poncho for men. Artisans of the centre for Traditional Textiles of Cusco work with ancestral techniques to create fashion for today and always. Woven by hand of fine alpaca wool, prized by the ancient Inca for its lightweight warmth, its colours come from natural dyes. Geometric motifs pay tribute to the traditions of Chinchero, where time seems to have stood still for centuries.

The community raises and cares for its own alpacas. The fleece is washed, carded and spun by hand using a pushka, or drop spindle. The dyes come from plants, nuts and tree bark. The next step is one of the most important, as the artisan prepares the warp, or vertical threads for the backstrap loom. This determines the size of the textile, the colour combinations, and the patterns that will be woven.

The intensity of colour can vary depending on the hardness of the water, the altitude and the local dye sources, making each textile a unique piece of handcrafted art.

Statement piece + comfortable!

I hesitated on this item, thinking it would only look so awesome on the model, maybe "too much" for a 5'3" woman. Happy to say that I was wrong. This is a gorgeous piece, makes a statement, and is also comfortable. This poncho dresses up a pair of jeans to a whole other level of fashion. Thank you, Novica Artisans!

A New Me

I live in North Texas where the winters are usually pretty mild. With temps in the 40s and clear, I had a need to walk downtown to see the latest Star Wars flick. Wore this baby for the first time. It was great. I felt a little self-conscious but it sure felt good. Had my own little blanket in the cold theatre. Loved it. It feels great, looks great on me, and is well constructed,. I expect to get many years of use from this wonderful garment.

"Inca Chief" 100% Alpaca Poncho

Beautiful weaving, quality, and weight. This easily doubles as a throw blanket. All the other reviewers were right - you just don't see something this good anywhere. LOVE the striking and natural wool - and slight natural alpaca wool scent - so you know it's the real deal. Another lifetime treasure from Peru, and NOVICA. Highly recommended!
