Description
The Meta throw is a soft faux mohair blanket woven in 100% polyester, worked with an abstract geometric jacquard design that reads as fluid, organic shapes across the cloth. It measures 130 x 180cm, a generous single-person size that drapes well over a chair, a bench or the end of a bed. The face is brushed to a hazy, mohair-like softness, and both short ends finish in a twisted tasselled trim that gives the piece its handmade character.
This is a layering throw first and foremost. Draped over an armchair or a reading chair it adds warmth you can pull across your lap, and folded across a bed or a stool it brings texture to a neutral scheme without adding a strong colour. The natural, undyed-looking ground sits happily against pale walls, oak and rattan, so it works as easily in a bedroom as in a living room. Because the shapes are tonal rather than high-contrast, the pattern softens into the room rather than competing with what is already there.
The construction is a woven jacquard, so the pattern is built into the cloth rather than printed on top, and the polyester fibre makes it hard-wearing and quick to freshen up between washes. The twisted tassels are best kept combed straight with your fingers after washing so they hang cleanly. It pairs with the wider Meta range, which the supplier makes in an abstract duvet cover set and cushions, and in a green colourway alongside this natural one if you want to build a coordinated look.

Frequently Asked
Is this throw made of real mohair?
No. It is woven from 100% polyester and brushed to a soft, mohair-like handle, so it gives you that hazy texture without any animal fibre.
How big is the throw and what will it cover?
It measures 130 x 180cm, which is a comfortable size for one person over a chair or across the foot of a bed, rather than a full double bedspread.
Is the pattern printed or woven in?
The abstract shapes are a jacquard design, meaning they are woven into the cloth itself rather than printed on the surface, so the pattern will not wear off.
How do I look after the tassels?
Comb the twisted tassels straight with your fingers after cleaning so they hang neatly and do not knot together over time.
Does the natural colourway suit a neutral room?
Yes. The tonal, undyed-looking ground and soft abstract shapes add texture without a strong colour, so it layers easily with pale walls, oak and rattan.
Is polyester a hard-wearing choice for a throw?
Polyester is durable and holds its shape well with regular use, which makes it a practical fibre for a throw that gets pulled about and layered daily.
