Description
Woven from silky fine Alpaca fibre grown in New Zealand, these super soft, voluminous plaid blankets are crafted using a centuries-old brushing technique that employs dried teasels from the thistle plant, producing a luxurious and light downy texture.
The hollow structure of Alpaca fibre serves as a natural insulator, providing warmth and exceptional strength, with hypoallergenic properties while remaining breathable and lightweight.
Free from dyes, in a natural sable tone, accentuated with contrasting cream and chocolate brown, this Alpaca throw will complement any interior and endure for many years to come.
Care: Gentle handwash in cool water with mild detergent. Line or flat dry, give it a shake or brush to restore the pile.

New Zealand-Made Alpaca and Mohair Blankets with Timeless Softness.
Masterweave Textiles has been at the forefront of New Zealand’s luxury fibre industry for over 35 years. Nestled in the Wairarapa farming region, the company is led by Lindsay and Philippa, whose family farm, Windermere, was among the first in Aotearoa to raise Angora goats, Cashgora, and cashmere-producing animals. In 1989, they expanded their vision by purchasing a small weaving facility—bringing their deep knowledge of fibre full circle.
Today, Masterweave remains the only dedicated mohair weaving mill in New Zealand. The studio is known for its exceptionally soft, voluminous throws and blankets, crafted from alpaca and mohair and brushed with a traditional technique using dried teasels from the thistle plant. This centuries-old finishing method gives each piece its signature downy texture and heirloom quality. Designed to comfort and endure, Masterweave textiles are woven with care, character, and generations of expertise.
