Ibarra Stone Mist Alpaca Blanket
Inspired by Ibarra, Ecuador's “White City”
CA$120.00
The Ibarra Stone Mist Alpaca Blanket draws inspiration from Ibarra, Ecuador's elegant “White City,” known for its light-filled plazas and distinctive highland character. Thoughtfully woven by artisans in Otavalo, Imbabura, this blanket combines soft beige and gray tones to create a calm, minimalist look for the modern home.
The neutral palette reflects the understated beauty of Ibarra's architecture and surrounding Andean landscape. Its versatile tones make it easy to layer over a sofa, place at the foot of a bed, or use as a cozy accent in any living space.
Crafted using traditional weaving techniques associated with the Otavalo region, the blanket reflects generations of Ecuadorian textile heritage. Backstrap and pedal looms contribute to its handcrafted character, while the finishing process creates a smooth drape suitable for contemporary interiors.
The design is also inspired by the region's rich folkloric traditions, including embroidered blouses, anaco skirts, and traditional blue ponchos worn in the Otavalo area.
