Description
This is a pure cotton throw worked in a tufted geometric design, sized 130 x 180cm. The base is a soft natural cream, and the pattern is raised rather than printed: rows of tufting build up a low-relief texture of small blocks and banded shapes across the cloth, so the design catches the light and sits proud of the surface rather than lying flat within it. Along two sides there is a pom-pom tassel trim in a soft muted green, the one note of colour against an otherwise neutral piece.
A throw this size is generous for a two-seater sofa or the end of a double bed, long enough to fold over an arm and still reach across a lap, or to lay along the foot of a bed as a top layer. The natural ground means it sits happily with almost any scheme, warm woods, pale walls, other undyed textiles, and the green tassels give you a colour to pick up in a cushion or a nearby plant if you want to tie it in. It suits a relaxed, unfussy room where texture does more of the work than pattern.
The tufting is what gives the throw its character, a hand-worked look with real depth to the surface, and being pure cotton it is breathable and takes a wash well, which matters on a piece you will actually use rather than only drape. Cotton softens with laundering and the tufted areas keep their loft, so it wears in rather than out. The tassels sit on two sides only, so orient the throw with the trim where you want it seen. Check the care label before the first wash, as the tufting and tassels reward a gentle cycle.

Frequently Asked
What is this throw made of?
It is 100% cotton, a breathable natural fibre that softens with washing and feels comfortable against the skin whether over a sofa or a bed.
How big is the throw?
It measures 130 x 180cm, which is generous enough for a two-seater sofa or to lay across the foot of a double bed as a top layer.
Where are the tassels positioned?
The pom-pom tassel trim runs along two sides only, so you can position the throw with the trim facing forward wherever you want it to be seen.
What is the tufted design like?
The geometric pattern is raised, built up in rows of tufting so it sits proud of the surface and gives the cloth real texture and depth rather than a flat printed look.
How should I care for it?
Cotton takes a wash well and softens over time. Follow the care label, and a gentle cycle looks after the tufting and the tassel trim on a piece you use often.
