About EcuaFina

Authentic Fair Trade Products from the heart of the Ecuadorian & Andes Mountains." Since her first footstep on Ecuadorian soil, the founder of EcuaFina, Rebecca Braak, has been in love with the land, its people, the rich culture and handmade products. EcuaFina literally means: the most beautiful products from Ecuador. These products made from soft alpaca wool include plaids, ponchos, hats, but also necklaces. Traditionally, these products are made by the Quichua Indigenous who live in the Andes mountains and live by trading homemade merchandise. Rebecca Braak is the founder of EcuaFina, she thought that these beautiful products could also enrich many American & European households and so the idea for her own store started to develop. Rebecca is in direct contact with the weavers. She visits the communities’ multiple times a year to ensure the high quality of the products and to design new products together with the locals. All EcuaFina products are Fair Trade. This implicates a fair pay for artisans, knowledge sharing, focus on handmade products and honouring the artisan techniques. Around Otavalo, in the North of Ecuador, there are numerous Quichua communities who are famous for their weaving art. The new generations of indigenous don't want to work in textiles anymore due to the low pay and uncertainty, that is why one of our goals as EcuaFina.
