elegant poncho

I hesitated to purchase this because of "one size fits most" sizing. The poncho is so stunning that I decided to take the plunge. The package arrived beautifully wrapped, and I saw that the poncho was perfect. I am 5' 10", and the poncho falls well below my lower hip area until about 5 inches above my knee. Love the poncho styling with the unique soft collar that drapes over the neckline. I own lots of wraps, and the design of this piece appealed to me since it won't fall off my shoulders because of side stitched sleeve openings. Fabric is soft and nice weight (alpaca/acrylic/wool). The Inca Claret design is a modern twist on traditional Peruvian textile motifs. The center torso is black, and the red/black graphic design runs down either side. Front and back are identical. High quality workmanship. Easy to wear casual/dressy and perfect for travel. My new "go to" wrap!

Love this beige or tan alpaca ruana, so elegant and beautiful. The fabric is gorgeous with also crochet details on the edges. Perfect layer and thickness. This color goes with everything since it's a plain color that goes well with any other color. It's perfect for spring too in this light tone. I highly recommend it and also this artisan. It's great quality. And it looks so fashionable, yet very practical. I have neck and nerve issues to my arms and hands so I love ruanas, opened in the middle, over ponchos. I hope that she make it in other colors too. And she continues making beautiful ruanas like this one, in other styles. I wanted another beige one but in a blend material with ruffled edges, because I already has one that I love in black and white, but it was sold out. I picked this one then, and it was a great choice too. This one seems thicker with more alpaca, so warmer, so it can be worn when it's cold in the winter. I hope that this artisan bring back the blend ones again.

My spouse was blown away by this handcrafted poncho. It is beautiful! We will order more from Celinda Jaco.
