This stunning blanket was woven by hand in the Carpathian Mountain Region of Europe about 100-120 years ago. These blankets are rare and wonderful, with a beautiful natural texture and look! I'm a big fan of these blankets (I have other in my store, simply search my store for the word blanket) They have so many wonderful, creative uses : picnic blankets, throws, fabric for pillows, bench cushion fabric, tablecloths, curtaining, shower curtains I have even seen them used as an area rug under a coffee table! This blanket uses a complex weave and is woven using both linen (heavy hemp) and natural wool from goats. The colors are a pale natural hemp off-white, a purples, browns, red, orange, black!
The woven plaid stripes appear on both sides. This blanket was constructed by first hand weaving the 2 lengths, which were then hand stitched together in a very primitive hand stitched seam down the middle. The ends are hand stitched with a hem.This lovely heavy textile weighs over 5 pounds and has a wonderful natural, heavy & floppy texture! Beautiful and heavy weight gorgeous quality. It would make a STUNNING throw or small bed cover or could also be used as upholstery, pillow or heavy curtain fabric. A perfect gift for any textile lover and a wonderful textile for any collection!
