Andean Puff™ Alpaca Reindeer — 12"
Inspired Peru
Bring the magic of the holidays home — our Alpaca Reindeer stuffed animal pairs genuine, undyed alpaca fur with the rustic charm of the season, creating a handcrafted heirloom that can be displayed each winter and enjoyed year-round.
The Feel of Andean Puff™
Beige and brown are not colors we added. This is the fiber's own natural pigment — genuine Huacaya alpaca fur in its purest, undyed form, chosen for this piece to give the reindeer its rustic, true-to-life coloring.
Andean Puff™ describes a dense, springy loft that yields softly under your hand and naturally recovers its volume. This distinctive feel comes from the natural crimp structure of genuine Huacaya alpaca fur, which creates exceptional loft and volume across the entire fur surface.
Within our Sensory Collection System, Cloud Touch™ is reserved exclusively for teddy bears, while Andean Puff™ identifies our Huacaya-fiber animal designs. The same natural crimp that gives Huacaya fiber its loft is expressed here through the reindeer's shaped silhouette and rustic markings.
Every piece includes a signed Certificate of Authenticity from the artisan who made it, one of our 35+ indigenous Andean artisan families in Peru.
