Description
The Candar throw is a boucle-textured throw in a warm ginger, its surface worked in tight little loops that catch the light and give the cloth its depth. It measures 130 x 170cm, a generous single-throw size, and finishes at both ends in a hand-tied fringe. The blend is 60% polyester and 40% cotton, so it carries the softness and breathability of cotton alongside the resilience and shape-holding of polyester, a combination that wears well through everyday handling.
This is a throw for layering. Folded across the foot of a bed it adds a band of colour and a change of texture against smooth bedlinen, and slung over the arm of a sofa or a reading chair it is there to reach for on a cool evening. The ginger tone sits comfortably with warm neutrals, creams and natural woods, and the boucle surface earns its place in a room that is otherwise flat and plain by bringing something for the eye and the hand to settle on. Draped over a blanket ladder it reads as much as an object as a furnishing.
The construction is woven, with the boucle loops giving the face its raised, nubbly character and the plain fringed ends adding a relaxed, decorative finish. The cotton content means it takes a warm hand next to the skin, while the polyester keeps the loops springy and helps the throw hold its shape after use. Being a polycotton blend, it is a practical everyday piece rather than something to keep for best. It is a single-colourway throw, chosen and sold on its ginger tone.

What is the throw made from?
It is a polycotton blend, 60% polyester and 40% cotton, which pairs the soft, breathable feel of cotton with the resilience and shape-holding of polyester.
