 (Peru)

Toque de Pasion Boutique carries its own line of distinct Peruvian organic cotton tops, skirts, & dresses with traditional embossments.

Toque De Pasion ("Touch of Passion") is a women's boutique featuring exclusive jewelry & clothing from Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Peru, and various other South American countries.

Our primary goal is to bring superior designs and affordably priced fashions, produced by individual artisans & fair trade companies, to our desert metropolitan area and beyond. We prefer to work with textile manufacturers who use progressive environmental & employment practices.

Among other lines, we are featuring Bakana jewelry from Brazil made of crocheted 18k gold or sterling silver wire interlaced with semi-precious stones, beads, and pearls. This line of stunning necklaces, bracelets, rings, earrings, and accessories has become a favorite of many celebrities (including Eva Longoria). Toque de Pasión is the only Bakana retailer in the western U.S. 

We also showcase items produced by new, small South American companies. We carry, for example, natural linen and silk garments handcrafted by Espiritual, a company that provides full-time employment to poor women living in Cariri, a semi-arid region in northeast Brazil.

Toque de Pasion Boutique also specializes in handmade alpaca garments from Peruvian and Bolivian artisans.
