CRANBERRY LINEN THROW
Frequently Asked Questions
How can I use this throw?
Upgrade your living and bedroom decor with our light weight Cranberry throw made of pure flax linen, with kantha detailing on the borders. Whether draped over a sofa, folded neatly at the foot of a bed, or used as a make-shift picnic blanket, its versatile nature makes it a perfect addition to any home.
This throw can also be used as a baby blanket/swaddle. It is also an excellent travel companion and can be used as a makeshift blanket during long journeys and summer outings.
What is Kantha?
Kantha embroidery is a traditional craft from the Indian subcontinent, particularly Bengal. It involves intricate hand-stitching to create beautiful designs on fabric. Kantha embroidery is known for its simplicity, yet it can be quite detailed, with motifs ranging from flowers and animals to geometric patterns. It's not just decorative; it also serves a practical purpose, as it's used to make blankets, quilts, and clothing.
Can I use this throw as a blanket?
The Cranberry throw is a light weight throw, and is suitable for day-time lounging. However, it is not a replacement for a blanket.
How should I wash this throw?
This is a hand embroidered piece, so we suggest gentle handling. It is machine washable in cold water on GENTLE setting. Use very mild cleaner (non-abrasive & bleach-free) to keep your linen from getting faded or discoloured. We recommend line drying in shade. If required, iron it on appropriate (low heat) settings.
The new throw may feel a little stiff when it arrives. Don’t worry! It will soften after the first wash, and will get softer and softer with each wash. Please click here to read the wash/care instruction carefully.
Your linen is precious.
What is stonewashed linen?
Stonewashing is a method of washing wherein the cloth is rolled over with abrasive stones (pumice) to give the fabric a loose, crinkly texture and a feather-like soft finish. Because of this our duvet covers are softer than ones made of regular (not-stonewashed) linen, and will prevent the fabric from shrinking over time with multiple washes. Not only that, stonewashing will give the fabric a lived-in, vintage touch and feel.
Made with love from pure flax linen, our Cranberry throw combines the luxurious softness of European linen with the intricate detailing of Kantha hand embroidery, creating a piece that you will cherish forever. The gorgeous Cranberry hue adds a pop of passion and drama to any space, making it a stunning focal point in your living room, bedroom, or even as a stylish accent in outdoor settings. Drape it over a sofa, layer it on a bed, or use as a cozy wrap during chilly evenings, this throw will be loved for its sheer gorgeousness.
