Elvang Ecru Baby Alpaca Throw

The collection called Écru is designed by Danish Cecilie Manz and consists of three throws. They differ from each other both in the base colour and in the discreet stripes along the edges that vary in both weave and colour, giving each throw its own unique identity. The throws come in three classic basic colours - a soft beige, an off-white and a brown. All are the natural colours of baby alpaca wool, which means that the fibres are not dyed.

Écru is made from 100% baby alpaca wool, which is known for its unique properties. The wool is thermoregulatory, meaning it can be up to seven times warmer than sheep's wool when it's cold, while appearing light and cool when temperatures rise. This is because alpaca wool fibres are hollow, and therefore naturally insulating. In addition, alpaca fibres are water-repellent and breathable, and the wool is hypoallergenic as it contains no lanolin, making it suitable for allergy sufferers.

Elvang is fair trade certified at the highest possible level within the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) as Guaranteed Member. This guarantees that the throw is woven under responsible conditions for both the environment, humans and animals.
