Description
The Delphine throw is a pure cotton throw carrying a printed floral design across a soft, undyed cotml ground. The pattern is a scattered posy of stylised flowers in dusty blue and green, worked over a natural cream base, with a loosely woven texture you can see plainly in the cloth. It measures 130 x 170cm, a size that suits a single bed foot, a two-seater sofa or an armchair, and one long edge is finished with a knotted tassel fringe rather than a plain hem.
This is a throw made for layering rather than a single formal cover. Folded over the arm of a sofa it softens a seating group and adds the floral note without committing the whole room to pattern; laid across the end of a bed it gives you an extra layer to pull up on a cold evening. The blue and green print sits happily against neutral walls, natural wood and plain upholstery, and the cream ground keeps it from reading as heavy. It works equally well in a living room, a bedroom or a reading corner.
The floral is printed onto one face; the reverse is left plain, so you can turn it patterned side out or down depending on how much of the design you want on show. The open, slightly slubby weave gives it a relaxed, handmade character, and the tasselled edge finishes it off. Being 100% cotton, it is a natural fibre that is breathable and washes well, so it is an easy piece to live with day to day. If you like this kind of block-print floral, it is the sort of throw that pairs readily with plain cushions to build up a layered, informal look.

Frequently Asked
What is the throw made from?
It is made from 100% cotton, a natural fibre that is breathable, soft to the touch and generally hard-wearing, which makes it a practical everyday layer.
Is the pattern on both sides?
No. The floral design is printed onto one face only and the reverse is left plain cotton, so you can display it either way depending on the look you want.
How big is it and what will it cover?
It measures 130 x 170cm, which comfortably drapes over a two-seater sofa, an armchair or the foot of a single or double bed as a layer.
What is the edge finish like?
One long edge is finished with a knotted tassel fringe rather than a plain hem, giving it a relaxed, informal character suited to casual layering.
Can I use it as the only throw on a bed?
You can, though at this size it works best as a layering piece across the end of a bed or a sofa rather than a full bed cover.
