Know before you buy
Because each blanket is handcrafted by artisans at Ndomo, no two pieces are exactly alike. You may notice slight differences in the pattern or color intensity, which are inherent characteristics of the traditional dyeing process rather than defects.
Measuring 46" x 72", this blanket is sized as a standard throw. While it works beautifully as a decorative accent on a bed, it is best suited for layering over a sofa or chair rather than as a primary bed covering.
The blanket is crafted from organic cotton and features a plush, woven texture. It offers a soft, comfortable feel that is substantial enough to provide warmth while remaining breathable.
Yes, the blanket is colored using non-toxic dyes. This aligns with the artisan practices of Ndomo, ensuring the product is safe for home use.
Given the artisanal nature of the organic cotton and traditional dyes, we recommend gentle hand washing or a delicate cycle in cold water. Always air dry to preserve the integrity of the fabric and the vibrancy of the colors.
