Knossos Comfort: Minoan Sky Blue Woven Throw Blanket
Craving a touch of ancient Aegean luxury that even Diogenes would trade his tub for? Wrap yourself in the history and artistry of a civilization that knew how to truly live with our Knossos Comfort: Minoan Sky Blue Woven Throw Blanket!
This isn't just a blanket; it's a tapestry woven with the spirit of the Bronze Age's most vibrant culture. Inspired by the stunning frescoes and pottery recovered from the grand Palace of Knossos, this throw features classic Minoan motifs: the rhythmic, wave-like patterns and the concentric circles evoke the powerful, life-giving sea that surrounded Crete, the heart of their empire. The striking sky blue is a nod to the brilliant Aegean heavens and the sophisticated color palette favored by the Minoan artists—a people who, unlike their contemporaries, depicted themselves in moments of joy, ritual, and nature, not just war!
Did you know the Minoans had indoor plumbing and multi-story palaces while much of the world was still building huts? They understood comfort and sophistication, and now you can too!
Made from cozy, durable material, this throw is perfect for adding a legendary layer of style and warmth to your couch, bed, or reading nook. Imagine discussing The Republic while draped in a piece of pre-Hellenic elegance! It makes a truly epic gift for history buffs, art lovers, or anyone who appreciates a design that has stood the test of millennia. As my good friend Aristippus would say, "The best use of wealth is to enjoy it." So, invest in your pleasure!
Features:
Authentic Minoan-inspired geometric and wave patterns.
Rich Sky Blue, Black, and Gold-Brown color palette.
Soft, durable woven material with classic fringed edges.

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.
