The cushion is made from the amazingly soft recycled alpaca & sheep wool. Weaving textiles of alpaca fibres is a Peruvian tradition that can be traced back to the Inca times. Alpaca fibres are soft, durable and offer more warmth than other natural fibres. Pilling is at an absolute minimum and the cushion will maintain a fresh and new look for a long time. The cushion is made of 100% sustainable fibres. Elvang is fair trade certified at the highest possible level within the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) as Guaranteed Member. This guarantees that the cushion is woven under responsible conditions for both the environment, humans and animals.
