Description
This is a printed cotton throw full of pattern: flowers and leaves crowd every part of the front, broken up by bold wavy stripes and swirls that read like a stylised tiger's coat. The front is multicoloured from edge to edge, while the reverse is plain, which gives you a calmer side when a corner folds back. Made from 100% cotton, it measures 152cm long and 127cm wide and weighs 0.93KG, so it has enough body to drape well without feeling heavy across your knees.
At this size it is a sofa or armchair throw rather than a bedspread: enough to tuck around one person on a cold evening, or to fold over the arm of a chair so the pattern shows. It sits happily over a rattan chair, along a wooden bench in a hallway, or across the end of a bed in a guest room. Because the print is so busy, it does best in a room where everything else is quiet: plain walls, a sofa in one colour, natural wood. It also suits anyone who likes a layered, collected look and wants one piece with real pattern in it.
The design is printed onto the cotton, and up close the fabric has a visible, slightly nubbly weave that gives the print a softly worn look. Care is straightforward: it goes in the washing machine at 30 degrees, can be tumble dried on a low setting and takes an iron on low if you want it smooth. Cotton breathes, so it is a fabric you can have over your knees in summer as well as winter. For styling, fold it in thirds lengthways over the back of the sofa with a strip of the plain reverse showing, or let it fall loosely over one arm of a chair: a neat fold suits a tidy room, a loose drape a relaxed one.
