Know before you buy
Pure new wool is known for its durability and natural warmth. While it is high-quality and soft, it retains the authentic, slightly textured feel characteristic of genuine wool, which provides excellent insulation.
Because of the delicate nature of pure wool, we recommend hand washing in cool water with a wool-specific detergent or professional dry cleaning. Avoid machine washing and tumble drying to prevent shrinking or damage to the fibers.
Yes, the Aurora blanket is woven, meaning the intricate geometric pattern is visible on both sides. The colors are typically inverted on the reverse, offering a versatile look for your sofa or bed.
The 130 x 180 cm size is ideal for draping over a sofa or as an extra layer on a bed, while the 100 x 150 cm size is better suited for smaller armchairs or as a dedicated lap throw.
Like most natural wool products, some light shedding or pilling can occur with initial use due to the nature of the fibers. This is a normal characteristic of pure wool and can be easily managed with a fabric comb or by gently brushing the surface.
