Awamaki - Lama Cap

Awamaki means handmade in Quechua. Each of the pieces are uniquely handcrafted by talented artisans in the Sacred Valley, and therefore every single item has slight variation. The difference from one piece to the next is what makes them so beautiful. Your purchase is already at work empowering women in Peru!

Awamaki collaborates with indigenous artisans in Peru to create unique handmade accessories from wool and alpaca. We guide highly skilled Andean women artisans to engage in the market economy, run successful cooperative businesses, and lead their communities towards a prosperous future.
