Dessa Geometric Polyester Throw - Olive

The Dessa throw is woven in pure polyester with a small geometric design, a repeating diamond lattice that runs the length of the cloth. It measures 130 x 180cm, a generous size for a single throw, and finishes at each short end with a knotted, tasselled fringe. In this olive colourway the diamonds are picked out in a paler natural tone against the green ground, so the pattern reads clearly across the whole piece rather than as a flat block of colour.

At 130 x 180cm it is long enough to drape over the arm and back of a two-seater sofa, to fold across the foot of a bed, or to keep by a chair for cooler evenings. Because it is a polyester weave described as suitable for indoors and out, it earns its place on garden furniture and by the seaside as readily as in the living room. The olive and natural pairing sits comfortably with wood, rattan and warmer neutral fabrics, and the tasselled edge gives it a relaxed, informal look rather than a formal one.

Polyester is a hard-wearing, quick-drying fibre, which is what makes this throw practical for outdoor use where a natural fibre would hold damp. The woven construction gives it structure and a little weight, and the fringe is tied off in knotted tassels along both ends. Shake it out and let it air after garden use, and it will settle back into shape. If you are furnishing a room or a garden space and want a single, versatile piece that moves easily between the two, this throw does that job without fuss.

Can I use this throw outside in the garden?

Yes, it is described as suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and the polyester weave dries quickly, so it copes with garden and seaside settings better than a natural fibre would.

How big is the throw and what will it cover?

It measures 130 x 180cm, which is long enough to drape over a two-seater sofa or fold across the foot of a bed, and comfortable to wrap around one person in a chair.

What is the throw made from?

It is 100% polyester, a hard-wearing synthetic fibre chosen here for durability and quick drying, which is why it suits use outdoors as well as in.

What does the fringe look like?

Each short end finishes with a row of knotted tassels, giving a relaxed, informal edge rather than a plain hemmed one.

Does the colour cover the whole throw?

The olive green forms the ground and the geometric diamonds are woven in a paler natural tone, so the pattern shows across the full length of the piece rather than sitting in one panel.
