Description
The Isla throw is a woven polyester blanket in soft sage green, finished at each end with a run of cream tasselled fringing. It measures 140 x 180cm, which is a generous single-person length: long enough to reach from your shoulders to your feet in an armchair, and wide enough to drape across the foot of a double bed or fold over the arm of a sofa. The photographs show a close two-tone weave, sage yarn shot through with pale cream, that reads as a fine flecked texture rather than a flat block of colour.
A throw like this earns its place in the living room first. Fold it over the back of a sofa or a reading chair and it is there the moment the evening cools, ready to pull across your lap. The muted green sits easily against natural woods, warm neutrals and other greens, so it works whether your room leans country or contemporary. Because it is lightweight rather than heavy, it layers well over a bed as a top blanket without adding much bulk, and it is easy to carry from room to room.
The fabric is 100% polyester, woven with a soft handle and knotted tassels along both short edges. Polyester holds its shape well, resists creasing and stands up to regular use, so a throw that is reached for most days keeps looking tidy. It is worth shaking the tassels straight now and then so they hang cleanly rather than tangling. Style it simply: a single throw draped at an angle does more for a sofa than a stack of folded blankets, and the cream fringe gives a plain scheme a little movement.

Frequently Asked
What size is the Isla throw and what will it cover?
It measures 140 x 180cm, which comfortably covers one person in a chair or drapes across the foot of a double bed as a top layer.
What is the throw made from?
It is 100% polyester, woven for a soft handle. Polyester resists creasing and holds its shape, so it copes well with everyday use and frequent folding.
Does it have a fringe or a plain edge?
Both short ends are finished with knotted cream tassels, while the long sides are left as the woven fabric edge, giving a decorative trim without fuss.
What colours does it suit?
The soft sage green flecked with cream is easy to place. It sits well with natural wood, warm neutrals and other greens in both country and contemporary rooms.
How should I care for the tassels?
Shake the tassels straight from time to time so they hang cleanly and do not tangle, and smooth them by hand after the throw has been folded away.
