Heavy Chenille Eyelet Linen Throw - Linen

This is a heavy chenille throw in a soft beige the supplier calls Linen, woven from 100% polyester. Chenille is a pile yarn, so what you get is the plush, velvety surface you can see in the close-up: a dense nap that catches the light and shifts tone as it drapes and folds. It comes in two sizes, 130x180cm and 150x200cm, so you can match the throw to the seat you are dressing rather than making do with one length. The photographs show a plain, undyed-looking neutral with a bound edge running all the way round, which gives the throw a clean, finished border rather than a raw hem.

A throw of this weight earns its place over the arm of a sofa or folded at the foot of a bed, where it is there to be picked up and pulled over you on a cool evening. The muted beige sits quietly against most upholstery, so it works whether your room leans warm and earthy or cool and pale. The larger 150x200cm size is generous enough to share across a two-seater or to cover a single bed; the 130x180cm suits an armchair or a smaller sofa. Because the colour is a plain neutral, it layers easily with patterned cushions or a contrasting blanket without competing.

The chenille pile is what makes this throw soft to the hand, and being polyester it is hard-wearing and holds its shape well over time. The bound edge you can see in the photographs frames each side neatly and helps the throw sit flat when laid out. Fold it, drape it, or bunch it loosely over a chair; the velvety surface reads well either way. It is a plain, practical throw for people who want warmth and texture rather than a busy pattern.
