Meet Ccanita Alpacas
Alpaca Craftsmanship from Cusco
Ccanita is a Peruvian artisan producer based in Sicuani, Cusco, specializing in handcrafted creations made from natural alpaca fiber and leather. With more than 16 years of experience, the brand brings together skilled makers whose knowledge of working with these materials reflects generations of Peruvian craftsmanship.
Made by Skilled Peruvian Artisans
Ccanita works with a team of artisans from communities surrounding Sicuani. Each piece is carefully shaped, sewn and finished by hand, giving every creation its own personality.
Because alpaca fur is a natural material, variations in color, texture and appearance are expected. These differences are part of what makes every Ccanita piece distinctive rather than mass-produced.
Inspired by Peru’s Most Beloved Animal
The alpaca has been closely connected to life in the Peruvian Andes for centuries. Valued for its exceptionally soft fiber, it remains an important symbol of Peru’s cultural identity and textile traditions.
Ccanita transforms this connection into soft alpaca plush animals and collectible keepsakes inspired by llamas, bears, rabbits, penguins and other familiar characters. Each piece offers a warm and tangible connection to Peru.
From Cusco to the World
Through its work, Ccanita helps carry Peruvian materials and craftsmanship beyond the Andes. Its creations are offered as meaningful gifts, decorative companions and collectible pieces for customers who appreciate natural materials and products with an authentic origin.
Peru Gift Shop is proud to introduce Ccanita’s work to customers in the United States and around the world.
