Puffin Felted Alpaca | Handcrafted in Peru

Celebrate one of the North Atlantic’s most charming seabirds with this Puffin Felted Alpaca Sculpture. Expertly needle-felted by artisans in Arequipa, Peru, each puffin highlights lifelike shape, markings, and coloration—capturing the spirit of the Aves class: feathered, warm-blooded, and light-boned for flight.

Crafted from certified alpaca fiber—softer and more durable than sheep’s wool—this sculpture brings a cozy, tactile presence to shelves, mantels, and nature-inspired spaces. Due to handcrafting, each piece is one-of-a-kind with slight variations. Finished with a discreet hanging loop, your puffin can be displayed on a perch or suspended.

Why Alpaca?

• Luxuriously soft & durable: Alpaca fiber offers a smooth handfeel and lasting beauty.
• Natural look: Authentic colors and markings are thoughtfully emulated.
• Andean heritage: A fiber with deep cultural roots and exceptional quality.

About Needle Felting

Needle felting is a dry technique that interlocks fibers with barbed needles. While wool is common, our artisans use alpaca fiber for a softer, sculptural finish that’s ideal for expressive wildlife forms.
