IBENA 150 x 200cm Sorrento Jacquard Throw Blanket with Pattern, Beige/Brown/Ivory

This is a truly beautiful throw for the price. It may not be natural wool (it is 60 per cent cotton and 40 per cent man-made fibres) but it looks and feels soft, warm and wonderful. The texture is great to touch and it has a nice sheen giving it a lovely appearance. I love it and am particularly delighted to see that it is washable. It is a good set of neutral colours so you can use it with most colour schemes. Previously I have paid the earth for woollen and cashmere throws and then had to spend upwards of about £15 to have them dry-cleaned. I havent actually washed this yet but I wouldnt have any qualms about it losing its nap etc if I stick it in the washing machine. Whereas with expensive woollen throws I wouldn't risk it.

I was in two minds about this throw as the picture does little to inspire, however it certainly came up trumps on quality and warmth. Also the neutral colours means it will go with anything.......just right for sitting in a chair if reading a book, or watching telly! Would especially recommend to the elderly.

This blanket/throw doesn't look that great on screen but the colours were just what I was looking for. Perfect for our double bed and just finishes the look I was hoping to create without too much effort. Delivery was prompt. Very pleased as I couldn't find anything like this elsewhere.
