About This Design

Audubon's Barred Owl and Squirrel Odd Friends Throw Blanket

Audubon's Barred Owl and Squirrel Odd Friends Throw Blanket

This captivating reproduction of John James Audubon’s Plate 46 from Birds of America features a Barred Owl swooping down on an unsuspecting (and oddly cheerful) squirrel. Audubon himself was enchanted by the Barred Owl, calling it the “nightly disturber” and describing its eerie calls that echoed through the Louisiana forests in October, resembling human laughter. Though some might think the Barred Owl a dull creature, Audubon observed its lively curiosity and its ability to startle even seasoned wanderers with its calls. Audubon noted an intriguing dynamic: by day, the sudden movements of a squirrel could intimidate the owl, but come nightfall, the tables turn, and it is the squirrel who must evade the owl’s hunting prowess. This artwork blurs the line between predator and prey, leaving us to wonder if this scene captures daylight or dusk. Without understanding their natural roles, one might even imagine them as an odd, mismatched pair of friends. This piece offers a fascinating glimpse into the balance of nature, where time of day shifts the power between two forest creatures.

A beautiful small blanket that is perfect for covering your legs while curled up in front of the fire, or for a decorative touch on the sofa. We also think it looks brilliant as a Christmas table centerpiece. We are delighted with it. The colors are absolutely perfect. Vibrant yet traditional. The pattern retains its lovely details despite the texture of the fabric. Very classy product that will not disappoint as a gift.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the cotton throw blanket. It was made with such high quality. I am just about to order another throw. The colors are so vibrate and the weaving is so neat. Affordable as well. I really love my throw.

A quality printed throw has its advantages. This is a much finer weave throw than its loopier cousins, and though lighter, it is worth the investment for custom room accessorizing. The back is much prettier than the typical brown, and the fringe on the long sides very vivid, the selvage nicely done. Before photographing, I washed the throw in cold water, delicate, with a thicker woven throw the same size. On tumble dry low, this throw was dry in half the time as the other. This is a very practical quality if you use throws for furniture covers or to wrap up in frequently. The sleekness of the fabric makes it a great layer for accenting or protecting without the feeling of sitting on too much stuff. Perfect for napping or when you feel a light chill coming on. The color printing is beautiful and on this fabric, matched the design and color of my Photoshop image. This is an advantage for blending room fabrics and colors. The fringe on the short sides prints the colors from the design image and therefore varies from the side fringe. I streaked a white fractal line through the plaid pattern to give the illusion of weaving. This printed as crisp as an illusory thread, and put some white in the short side fringe, showing another advantage of print vs loomed- for artistic purposes, line lines, detail, and color integrity can be planned and preserved. My loomed throws have color limitations and more of a needlepoint texture. Print throws reproduce an exact image. The throw felt a little stiff straight out of the package, but this went away in the first delicate wash. Of course I searched the wash water for ink or bleeding and there was none.
