# From The Andes

Website: https://fromtheandes.net
Last updated: 2026-06-09 19:00:08 UTC

> From The Andes is a luxury house established in 1987 in Taos, New Mexico, sourcing finite, often one-of-one alpaca apparel, handcrafted jewelry, gemstones, folk art, ceremonial masks, textiles, and home decor directly from artisans across the Andes, the Himalayas, and beyond. Nothing here is made twice.

From The Andes is a fashion house, not a retail import shop. Our positioning rests on pre-digital, human-made authenticity. We do not trade in artisan poverty narratives. We offer objects with provenance, made by people whose craft predates the industries that imitate them. The house is owned and operated by Vladimir, who sources directly and writes all editorial.
