OUR FIBERS

KUNA carries in each garment the softness of the best fiber from our alpacas, vikunas, llamas and guanacos, but also takes care in the conservation, breeding, and improvement of these species, in the preservation of the andean communities and their invaluable knowledge and culture.

VIKUNA

The most beautiful of the South American camelids, this beautiful animal with the finest animal fiber in the world functions for the ancient weavers of the Andes, the most valuable raw material, with which they made wonderful clothing for the Inca royalty.

For the collection of its fiber, the ancestral knowledge of the Andean communities is used, through the method of shearing called Chaccu, which has allowed us to obtain this valuable fiber while maintaining the integrity and freedom of this wonderful animal.

At KUNA we have taken on the fascinating challenge of ensuring the survival of the vikuna and its rich ancestral heritage, employing thousands of Peruvians, becoming the only brand in the world that accompanies the production process from beginning to end.
