Tarma's Meaning

Tarma, Peru

Tarma is a beautiful Peruvian town surrounded by majestic fields of flowers. Located at 10,000 feet at the base of the highest Andes peaks and close to the jungle covered mountains of the Amazon basin, Tarma is known for it's textile and leather industries and renowned flower trade.

For many, Tarma represents the spirit of travel and adventure. Located in a region of the world with a wide variety of outdoor pursuits -- ranging from extreme alpine ascents to jungle and river adventure -- all are accessible for the modern nomad traveling to and from Chile and Machu Picchu .

Above the Tarma name we placed stacked stones, called a cairn, to represent the balance and path of life. To some, the stacked rocks look like steps on a path. To others, they represent balance and energy of the spirit. To others still, it's a playful interpretation of a trail cairn that guides you through uncertain areas. We think it's a little of all of those and more.
