This 12-inch bald eagle stuffed animal is handmade in Cusco, Peru from genuine baby Huacaya alpaca fur, in its own natural white and brown. An American icon, made by hand in the Andes, finished with the Andean Puff™ softness that defines our collection.
The Feel of Andean Puff™
The white of the head and tail and the deep brown of the body are not colors we added. They are the fiber's own natural pigments: genuine Huacaya alpaca fur, matched by hand to recreate the bald eagle's unmistakable markings.
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 loft and volume across the entire fur surface, from the full white head to the layered brown wings.
Within our Sensory Collection System, Cloud Touch™ is reserved exclusively for teddy bears, while Andean Puff™ identifies our Huacaya-fiber animal designs. Here that same natural crimp shapes the eagle's proud profile, finished with a soft suede beak and feet.
Each eagle is hand-stitched entirely by a single artisan from one of our indigenous Andean artisan families in Cusco. No two pieces are exactly alike. Every eagle ships with an Artisan Story Card and a Certificate of Authenticity signed by the artisan who made it.
