Purple & White Suri Alpaca Family — 16", 12" & 6"
Three generations, one complete family. This set brings together a 16" Purple Suri Alpaca, a 12" White Suri Alpaca, and a 6" Purple Suri Alpaca — genuine Suri alpaca fur, naturally silky locks, and single-artisan craftsmanship, presented together as one heirloom collection. The Purple & White Suri Alpaca Family This set includes: One 16" Purple Suri Alpaca — hand-dyed a deep violet purple One 12" White Suri Alpaca — left in its own natural, undyed white color One 6" Purple Suri Alpaca — hand-dyed a deep violet purple Each piece is individually handmade, start to finish, by a single artisan and includes its own Certificate of Authenticity. The set also ships in a canvas Inspired Peru drawstring gift bag — a touch reserved for our gift sets. The two purple pieces are individually hand-dyed by a single artisan, preserving the fiber's natural sheen and drape. The white piece is left entirely in the fiber's own natural pigment — no dye, no added color. No two pieces are ever identical. This design was created by Inspired Peru and is handcrafted within our network of 35+ indigenous Andean artisan families in the Peruvian highlands. Andean Silk™ describes the long, silky locks that naturally grow in smooth, parallel strands, giving Suri fiber its distinctive drape and sheen. Within our Sensory Collection System, Cloud Touch™ is reserved exclusively for teddy bears, Andean Puff™ identifies our Huacaya-fiber animal designs, and Andean Silk™ identifies our Suri-fiber designs like these.

Care & Ownership Suri fiber's long, silky locks benefit from slightly different care than our Huacaya pieces. Spot clean gently using a small amount of foam from a mild, fragrance-free soap, keeping the piece as dry as possible. Never machine wash or tumble dry. When drying or restoring shape, smooth the locks gently in their natural direction with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb — never brush against the direction of the locks, and never use a hairdryer or other heat source.

One 16" Purple Suri Alpaca, one 12" White Suri Alpaca, and one 6" Purple Suri Alpaca, each individually handmade from genuine Suri alpaca fur, plus a canvas Inspired Peru drawstring gift bag. Is this set made from real alpaca fur? Yes. All three pieces are made from genuine Suri alpaca fur — the two purple pieces hand-dyed, the white piece left in its natural color. What's the difference between Suri and Huacaya alpaca fur? Both are genuine alpaca fiber, but they feel very different. Huacaya fiber crimps into a dense, springy loft. Suri fiber grows in long, straight, silky locks with a natural drape and sheen. Is the color natural or dyed? Both. The 16" and 6" Purple pieces are fully hand-dyed. The 12" White piece is fully natural and undyed. Does this contain lanolin? The 12" White piece is naturally lanolin-free, since it's fully undyed. The two Purple pieces are hand-dyed and carry no lanolin-free claim. What are the eyes made of? Glass safety eyes on all three pieces, hand-set and secured with a backing washer. Does each piece come with its own Certificate of Authenticity? Yes. Each piece ships with its own individual Certificate of Authenticity. Can I buy each piece on its own? Yes. All three pieces are also available individually. Where does this set ship from? Ships from the United States, with free shipping to the continental US.
