Description
This is a heavy chenille velvet throw in a soft greige, a warm grey-beige that sits between the two and reads differently depending on the light. The face is a dense velvet chenille pile with a fine, close weave visible in the surface, giving it real weight and drape rather than a thin, flyaway feel. It comes in two sizes, 130x180cm and 150x200cm, so you can choose one to drape over a chair or the larger to reach across a sofa or the foot of a bed.
A throw like this earns its place in a living room, over the arm of a sofa or folded across the seat, and it works equally well on a bed as a top layer you pull up on a cool evening. The muted, earthy greige is an easy neutral to live with: it settles happily against natural wood, stone, cream and taupe, and it does not fight with a busier cushion or rug already in the room. If you want a pulled-together look, the same range extends to matching eyelet curtains and cushions, so you can echo the fabric across the space.
The throw is made from 100% polyester, which is what gives chenille its hard-wearing character: the pile holds up to daily handling, resists creasing and keeps its colour well over time. Polyester is also quick to dry and simple to look after, so this is a throw you can use rather than save for best. The bound edge in the photographs frames the piece neatly and helps it hold its shape through washing. Fold it over a chair, layer it with a contrasting knit, or keep it plain for a calm, cocooning corner.

Frequently Asked
What does greige look like in a room?
Greige is a soft blend of grey and beige, a warm neutral that shifts with the light and works well against wood, stone and cream tones.
What is chenille and why choose it for a throw?
Chenille is a fabric with a soft, fuzzy pile that catches the light. It feels plush and cosy while staying durable enough for everyday use.
What size should I choose?
The 130x180cm suits draping over a chair or a single throw across a sofa, while the 150x200cm reaches further across a larger sofa or bed.
Is polyester a good choice for a throw?
Polyester is hard-wearing, holds its colour and dries quickly, so a polyester chenille throw stands up well to regular handling and washing.
Can I match this throw to other pieces?
Yes, the same range includes matching eyelet curtains and cushions, so you can carry the fabric and colour across the whole room.
