Description
There's a very small, but beautiful, 9x5 inch woodcut from China, made in the 15th Century. The carver depicted the flight of swallows along thermals, rising and falling, still but in motion. That woodcut inspired the design for our Bird on a Wave blanket. The same design, in 100% linen is our Kalaloch blanket, if you're after something cooler.
The weave of this blanket is flatter than some of our other linen wool blend blankets. It's the ideal throw which also sneakily aids a sofa-snooze. Simple but beautiful - to suit any room.
