Know before you buy
This blanket is not machine washable. To maintain the quality of the wool blend, it should be professionally dry cleaned only.
A napped finish means the fabric has been brushed to raise the fibers, resulting in a thicker, softer, and more plush texture compared to an un-napped wool blanket.
Yes, the blanket is fully reversible. The geometric pattern is woven into the fabric, allowing you to display either side for two distinct color variations.
Absolutely. Its generous 64" x 80" size and iconic geometric design make it a popular choice for wall displays. You can use a decorative rod or mounting clips to showcase the pattern as art.
The blanket is crafted from an 80% virgin wool and 20% cotton blend. If you have a known wool allergy or sensitivity, you may find the texture uncomfortable against bare skin.
This blanket is categorized as ultra-warm. The high wool content provides excellent natural insulation, making it ideal for cold weather or as an extra layer on your bed.
