Cosy Plain Polyester Throw - Charcoal

Description

DescriptionThis is a woven polyester throw in charcoal grey, finished along its short ends with a deep white tasselled fringe. It measures 140 x 180cm, which is the size that reads as a proper sofa throw rather than a lap blanket: long enough to fall over the arm of a two or three seater and still cover your legs, or to lie across the foot of a double bed without stopping short. The face has a brushed, slightly hazy surface with a fine knitted texture visible up close, and the two-tone edge, pale fringe against the grey body, gives it a quiet contrast rather than a pattern.
Charcoal is one of the easier greys to place, and this one sits between mid and dark, so it works over a paler sofa where you want the throw to register, and over a darker one where you want warmth without a clash. It suits a living room built on neutrals and natural wood, and it earns its keep on a bed as the layer you pull up on a cold evening. The white fringe picks up cream cushions, sheepskin or a linen-look cushion, and stops the whole thing reading as flat grey. Drape it corner to corner over the back of a chair and the tasselled end shows to good effect.
It is made entirely from polyester, woven rather than knitted flat, which is what gives it the soft handle you want in a piece that gets scrunched, folded and thrown about daily. Polyester holds its shape well and does not shed the way some natural fibres do. The fringe is part of the weave, so treat it gently when you fold. As a plain, muted throw it layers happily with bolder cushions or a patterned rug, letting the other pieces in the room do the talking.

Frequently AskedWhat size is this throw and what will it cover?
It measures 140 x 180cm, big enough to drape over a two or three seater sofa or across the foot of a double bed, and to wrap around one person comfortably.
What is the throw made from?
It is 100% polyester, woven for a soft handle. Polyester holds its shape and does not shed the way some natural fibres can.
Is the fringe attached separately or part of the throw?
The tasselled fringe is worked into the weave along the two short ends, so handle it gently when folding to keep the strands sitting neatly together.
What colour is it and what does it go with?
The body is a mid to dark charcoal grey with a pale white fringe. It sits well with neutrals, natural wood and cream cushions in a living room or bedroom.
Can I use it on a bed as well as a sofa?
Yes. At 140 x 180cm it works as a bed-end layer on a single or double, or as an everyday sofa throw for wrapping up on cooler evenings.
