Reversible Wool Throw | Orange + Brown

There are blankets you put away when you’re not cold. This seems like a waste of a perfectly good blanket.

Woven in the United Kingdom from pure new wool, this Highland Tweeds throw earns its place in the room even when nobody is underneath it. Double-cloth construction gives it a substantial weight and two entirely different sides:  saturated orange when the room could use some color, deep brown when it could use considerably less. Flip it according to the season, the furniture, or whatever opinion you happen to have about orange that day. Wool makes it naturally warm, breathable, and durable, while the generous size is equally good thrown over the back of a sofa, folded at the end of a bed, or wrapped around an actual person (which remains, despite everything we’ve done to blankets aesthetically, their original purpose). Fringed edges finish the whole thing without making it feel overly precious. It’s essentially two very good wool blankets occupying the same amount of closet space.

About the Brand:  Highland Tweeds by Prince of Scots

The British have been making wool blankets for an awfully long time, which seems like one of those situations where experience probably matters. Highland Tweeds is Prince of Scots' collection of wool textiles inspired by British and Scottish textile traditions, with an emphasis on natural fibers, traditional weaving, and pieces intended to survive considerably more than one decorating cycle. Prince of Scots describes its guiding question as whether something will still be beautiful twenty years from now, which is a refreshingly inconvenient standard in an industry that periodically decides everyone needs an entirely different shade of beige. The collection is woven in the British Isles and favors wool, tartans, herringbones, and other things that have already demonstrated a fairly impressive resistance to becoming obsolete.
