Product Description

The Chelsea Poncho exemplifies ethereal elegance with its ethereal Black Melange hue and lightweight Superfine Alpaca fabric. This delicately crafted garment features an openwork knit design, offering breathability and graceful draping. With its effortless closed-poncho silhouette, classic round neckline, and short sleeves, it serves as a versatile layer perfect for any season, beautifully marrying timeless craftsmanship and Peruvian heritage. From the brand: The Chelsea Poncho is a portrait of ethereal warmth, a piece where fiber and air are woven as one. Presented in a luminous Black Melange, it is meticulously crafted from a sumptuous blend of Superfine Alpaca, a fiber cherished for its almost weightless softness and gentle warmth. Its soul lies in the technique: a delicate, openwork knit that creates a beautiful, lace-like transparency, allowing the piece to breathe and drape with an unstudied grace. The effortless, closed-poncho silhouette, with its clean round neckline and soft, short sleeves, makes it the quintessential piece for the intentional woman—a timeless, artisanal layer that adds a touch of Peruvian heritage to any look. The Story of This Garment: Material: Sourced from the Peruvian Andes, our Superfine Alpaca is a sustainable fiber, revered for its cloud-like softness and thermal properties, offering warmth without weight. The "melange" yarn creates a nuanced, sophisticated color. Artisanship: The delicate openwork pattern is a testament to the skill of our artisan partners in Lima, a modern interpretation of traditional knitting techniques that requires precision and a light hand. Design: Inspired by the idea of a "weightless embrace," this closed-poncho design is a versatile, four-season layer, offering the luxury of alpaca in a light, breathable form. Size & Fit ONE SIZE.
