The best, most useful gifts from Peru are …
Wallets
Handmade or machine made. Always very colorful and handy. Perfect for a present or souvenir from the trip. Each time I am going to Poland, I have few of them for my loved ones. Seems they like it, because they use them every day.
Such colorful accent for sure will make a trick in Poland, where lively colors are not so popular. Any colorful item makes your live more colorful. It is worth to have such gadget with you.

Notepads
More and more people carry with them such notepads to note important thoughts or write down important information. Well-made notepad with Incan elements might be perfect solution here.
Colorful, very often made of leather, notepads with Incan scents
Slipcovers
I often hear from tourists that Andean gifts are so beautiful, colorful and do not much our Polish reality and style. I think it is not good thinking. The ones who both them change their mind as well. They perfectly match polish home.

Hats, scarfs, gloves
In Andes in Peru it is very cold. It is worth to pack hat, scarf and gloves or …
Or skip packing those and buy theme here in Peru. Handmade, in different colors, synthetic or made of alpaca wool – there are a lot of options.
Remember that each community producing those items, has its own style and textures. Our clients love those products, mainly hats coming from Amantani Island on Titicaca Lake. I have few of them and highly recommend them. Good price and awesome quality.

Pure cacao, eucalyptus extracts and muna plants
Extracts from different kinds of plant or cacao are very popular in Peru. Unfortunately they are not very long-lasting and do not have certificates. There is only one company in this country that has all approvals and documents that proves high quality and extracts safety. They have in their offer very strong extracts from many local plants like muna and also eucalyptus or cacao.
Why they can be great gift from Peru? You can use them for your own cosmetics production and also for cooking. Some of them are great for inhalation or aroma for saunas.
