What is a Throw Blanket?
Throw blankets are a unique category of home textiles primarily designed for warmth and decorative purposes. Smaller than standard blankets, they are perfect for wrapping around yourself on chilly evenings or for adding a stylish layer to furniture. Their design makes them versatile for both indoor and outdoor use, enabling them to adapt to various settings from cozy nooks to decorative accents on furniture.
Choosing the Right Size Throw Blanket
The size of a throw blanket is crucial depending on its intended use. Standard throws typically measure around 50 inches by 60 inches, making them ideal for personal use over the lap or shoulders. For a more substantial presence, a larger size like 50 inches by 70 inches can be perfect as a statement piece on a bed or draped elegantly over a sofa. These dimensions ensure that the throw remains functional while also contributing visually to the room’s layout.
Cotton vs. Cashmere vs. Wool Throw Blankets
Deciding between cotton and wool throws involves considering their material properties and your climate needs. Cotton is a favored choice for its lightweight, breathable nature, making it excellent for use in warmer seasons or climates where heavy bedding isn't necessary. It's easy to clean and often comes in various weaves that enhance its texture and visual appeal. Wool, on the other hand, is valued for its natural warmth and breathability, which are ideal for colder weather. Wool throws are typically heavier, providing a snug barrier against the cold while still allowing skin to breathe, preventing overheating.
For those seeking a touch of luxury, cashmere throw blankets offer unparalleled softness and elegance. Made from the fine undercoat of Kashmir goats, cashmere throws are highly prized for their exceptional warmth and lightweight feel. They provide an exquisite comfort that enhances any relaxation experience, making them a cherished accessory in any upscale living environment. Their plush, delicate nature also makes them an ideal choice for those looking to indulge in the ultimate comfort. Designer throw blankets from Peacock Alley can give a custom look to any bedroom, living room, or other space in your home that could use a pop of color or a bit of texture. And, our oversized throw blankets can be stylishly laid over a cozy chair, the bottom of the bed, or even cleverly hung on the wall.
