Fur Boucle Cherries Velvet Faux Fur Throw - Morello

This is a faux fur throw with a real trick up its sleeve: the surface blends soft, brushed faux fur with tightly textured boucle, worked into a checkerboard of alternating squares. Across that grid runs a bold pop-art cherry design, the fruit picked out where the boucle meets the smoother pile so the pattern is felt as much as seen. It measures 140 x 180cm, a generous single-throw size that drapes over a sofa or across the foot of a bed without disappearing. The whole thing is made from polyester, and the reverse is a plush velvet in the same deep morello tone.

A throw like this earns its keep in the living room, over the arm of a sofa or folded on an armchair for the evenings when you want something to pull over your knees. The dark, wine-red morello colour sits happily against neutral upholstery and warms up a cooler colour scheme, and the cherry motif gives it a bit of personality rather than leaving it as a plain block of red. At this size it also works thrown across the end of a double bed as an extra layer. Two textures in one piece mean it reads differently depending on the light, which keeps it interesting in a room you spend real time in.

The construction is what sets it apart. The face combines faux fur and boucle for warmth and grip, while the velvet reverse gives you a smoother, cooler side to turn to. Polyester is easy to live with day to day, holds colour well and does not need the careful handling of natural fur. It shakes out and settles quickly, so it looks after itself between the times you actually use it. Fold it over the sofa and the boucle cherries face out; flip it and the velvet takes over. It is a straightforward, comforting piece for anyone who likes a bit of texture underhand.

What is this throw made from?

It is 100% polyester throughout, with a faux fur and boucle face and a plush velvet reverse in the same morello tone.

How big is it and what will it cover?

It measures 140 x 180cm, a generous size that drapes over a sofa or across the foot of a double bed as an extra layer.

What does the checkerboard texture feel like?

The face alternates between soft brushed faux fur and tightly textured boucle, so the cherry pattern is raised enough to feel with your hand as well as see.

Is the throw the same on both sides?

No, it is not. One side carries the faux fur and boucle cherries, and the reverse is a smoother plush velvet you can turn to when you want a cooler feel.

Does it need any special handling?

Polyester is easy to live with, holds its colour well and does not demand the careful treatment natural fur would, so it settles back into shape after use.
