Description
The Lowen throw is a brushed wool blend blanket in a deep chocolate brown, worked in a plain, unpatterned face so the texture does the talking. It measures 130 x 170cm, a single-throw size that drapes comfortably over the arm of a sofa or across the foot of a double bed. The fibre content is a 10% wool, 90% polyester blend, brushed to raise a soft surface that traps air and holds warmth. The colour is an earthy, muted brown that sits close to a natural taupe, set off by a contrasting fawn trim.
This is a throw for the living room first of all, laid over the back of a sofa or an armchair ready to be pulled across your lap on a cold evening. At 130 x 170cm it is generous enough for one person to wrap up in and still long enough to dress a bed as a top layer. The warm brown tone works with neutral, stone and cream schemes, and the fawn detailing gives it something to answer to a natural oak or a woven basket nearby.
The edges are finished with a blanket stitch trim in a fawn yarn, a traditional hand-worked detail that frames the throw and reinforces the perimeter. Each of the four corners carries a jumbo tassel in the same fawn, chunky twisted lengths that add weight and movement where they hang. The blend matters for care: the high polyester content makes the fabric hard-wearing and quick to settle back into shape, while the wool brings the warmth and the soft brushed hand. A plain, textured throw like this is easy to layer with patterned cushions or another throw when you want more depth.

Frequently Asked
What is the Lowen throw made from?
It is a wool blend, 10% wool and 90% polyester, brushed to give a soft surface. The wool brings the warmth and the polyester keeps it hard-wearing.
How big is it and what will it cover?
It measures 130 x 170cm, which is enough for one person to wrap up in on the sofa or to dress the foot of a double bed as a top layer.
What does the blanket stitch trim do?
The blanket stitch runs around the edge in a contrasting fawn yarn, framing the throw and reinforcing the perimeter so the edges hold their shape over time.
Are the tassels attached at the corners?
Yes, there is a jumbo tassel at each of the four corners, made from chunky twisted lengths of the same fawn yarn that add weight and a little movement.
Is the throw reversible and plain on both sides?
The face shown is a plain brushed brown with no pattern, so it layers easily with cushions or another throw when you want to build up texture.
