Blending Heritage

The Finest Fibre, the best of Italian craft

QAPAQ embodies the harmonious blend of two worlds: the finest Andean fibres crafted by Italy's best artisans.

Vicuña

Scarce, Exclusive.

Vicuña wool is the most limited and exclusive natural fiber, once reserved for Inca royalty. Native to the high Andes, vicuñas have been valued for centuries for their exceptional softness, warmth, and lightness.

Each year, only around 12 tonnes of vicuña wool are harvested—compared to 25,000 tonnes of cashmere—resulting in no more than 20,000 garments being crafted worldwide.

We source our wool exclusively from Bolivia, where 100% of vicuñas roam freely and traditional shearing methods are preserved. Their wool is gathered through the Chaccu, a centuries-old ritual led by local communities, ensuring both sustainability and authenticity.
