Know before you buy
The Quito style refers to traditional weaving techniques originating from the Ecuadorian Highlands. It is characterized by intricate, authentic patterns and a dense, high-quality weave that reflects the cultural heritage of the indigenous artisans who create them.
This is an all-season throw, meaning it provides a comfortable layer of warmth without being overly heavy. While it is perfect for chilly evenings, you may want to pair it with a heavier duvet during the coldest winter months.
Because this piece is handcrafted by artisans, we recommend gentle care to maintain its texture and color. Spot cleaning or professional dry cleaning is best to preserve the integrity of the weave and the vibrancy of the rust orange dye.
It is designed for both. The rich rust orange hue and distinct pattern make it an excellent decorative accent draped over a sofa or armchair, while the durable construction ensures it remains functional for everyday use.
Yes. Because each blanket is individually handcrafted by indigenous artisans, slight variations in the weave and color saturation are expected. These nuances are a hallmark of authentic craftsmanship and make each piece unique.
