Isla Plain Polyester Throw - Butter Yellow

Description

Description
The Isla is a woven throw in pure polyester, finished with a soft tasselled trim along its short edges. At 140 x 180cm it is a generous single-person size, long enough to drape over the length of a sofa or fold across the foot of a bed. The weave has a slight diagonal grain that catches the light, and the fringed ends hang loose and slightly curled, as woven tassels do.

This is a throw for the sofa arm, the reading chair or the end of the bed. The butter yellow is soft rather than acid, so it warms a neutral room without shouting, and it sits happily alongside creams, natural linens and pale woods. Use it for the practical job a throw does best: pulled over your knees on a cool evening, or layered over a plain sofa to add a bit of colour and something for the eye to land on. Being polyester rather than wool, it is a good choice for anyone who finds wool scratchy or who wants an easy-going piece that does not need coddling.

Polyester is a hard-wearing fibre, which is why a polyester throw stands up to daily handling and frequent folding. The tasselled edges are a finishing detail rather than a structural one, so shake them out and comb them straight with your fingers to keep them tidy. To settle it in place, drape from one corner and let the diagonal weave fall naturally rather than squaring it off. It makes a simple, useful addition to a living room or bedroom and reads as relaxed rather than formal.
