Botero Penguin: Alpaca Sculpture

The Botero Penguin Alpaca Sculpture is a cute caricature from our Botero Collection. A collection inspired by Fernando Botero's style and contouring on our favorite animals. They are made entirely by hand, so each piece is unique with slight variations. They are just a couple inches tall and round. Fiber is hand painted in small batches for brilliant colors. Each is finished with a loop for hanging. Order yours today!

What makes this special:

• Realistic details - authentic features and character carefully needle felted

• Dual display options - includes hanging loop or stands beautifully on any surface

• Premium alpaca fiber - softer and more artistic than traditional wool felting

• Handcrafted artistry - each piece individually created with attention to detail

• Perfect size - stands a few inches tall, ideal for shelves, desks, or collections

Each sculpture is lovingly created by skilled artisans in Arequipa, Peru, with faces sewn and detailed by hand. Due to the handcrafting process, every piece is unique with slight natural variations - making yours truly one-of-a-kind.

A bit of our felting history:

Lanart pioneered alpaca needle felting in Peru nearly 20 years ago, training a team of artisans in a craft that had traditionally only been practiced with wool. Today, every piece is still authentically handmade by those same skilled artisans—bringing originality, heritage, and genuine alpaca fiber to every little felted critter.
