Handbag woven entirely by hand in 100% merino virgin wool.
The solidarity economy project "Inkakunaq Ruwaynin" tries to contribute to the
improvement of the living conditions of women in the mountains of the Cuzco
region, and their families by reducing or even eliminating the exploitation of
their artisanal textile production (their only source of income) by wholesalers
in the sector.
The latter taking advantage of their lack of knowledge at the commercial level
to buy their products below market prices.
The association brings together 4 communities (Chari, Choquecancha, Huaran and
Ccachin) who sell their products together in a shop in the center of Cuzco,
however sales have been declining since 2011 and we are looking for new
outlets, especially internationally to help them develop.
Made on traditional looms.
