Land of the Incas

Presented by Passamaneria Frassinetti

Ancient traditions and customs that have survived the test of time still bear fruit in the highest Peruvian mountains. Steep climbs and trails not accessible to all lead to places where the people are shaped by their remote origins. There, where the rock pierces the clouds, the roots are still firm and life continues at a natural pace. Out of the dusty land emerge little white woolly tufts, as the llama accompanies people as they go about their daily rural lives. Venerated nature provides plenty of maize for harvesters, while skilled, hardworking hands patiently weave woollen threads in an alphabet of designs and symbols. Echoing an archaic language. The descendants of the Incas wear colourful ponchos to protect themselves from the chill. Passamaneria Frassinetti’s cords and fringes travel the world to a legendary land, absorbing its colourful imagination and capturing its fresh winds. The eco-sustainable collection features airy wool curls and soft cables. (Exclusive content for Superzoom)
