Objects of Desire
Contributed By: Caitlin Bristol
Just because you’re freezing doesn’t mean you have to be frumpy. In time for the inevitable April showers, we’ve fallen for the warm whimsy of Object Mythology’s gorgeous authentic alpaca scarves to help withstand the wind chill. Handmade from 100% baby alpaca fiber (a sustainable, warmer yet more durable alternative to wool) by skilled artisans in Peru, each scarf demonstrates remarkable craftsmanship with a softness as smooth as a baby’s (the mythological Cupid, perhaps?) bottom.

Whether you prefer the more voluptuous violet-colored Cora infinity scarf ($340) for a chunkier, textured feel, or the finer, lighter Sylvie ($105), or would rather cozy up with a chic throw, it will come as no surprise that alpaca fiber has been called the Fiber of the Gods by the ancient Incas. Luxury is no myth!
