The Sapphire Serenity Throw Blanket
By the endless blue of the heavens and the abundant beauty of the Firdaws (Paradise)! Your home deserves to be draped in the silk of scholarly elegance and the comfort of a thousand and one nights! This is not merely a throw blanket; it is a meticulously woven vision of an Islamic Garden, a sanctuary of style that transports you directly to the tranquil, tile-clad courtyards of Persia and the Ottoman Empire.
The rich, dominant palette of blues—from the deep sapphire of the base to the luminous sky blue of the stylized flowers—is a classic hallmark of Oriental artistry, symbolizing the infinite heavens and the sacred element of water. The intricate floral and vine patterns are a breathtaking example of the Arabesque, where nature's beauty is rendered in a flowing, non-representational style that embodies the order and harmony of the cosmos. Draped over your sofa or across your bed, this blanket instantly transforms the mundane into a majlis of luxurious comfort, offering warmth that is matched only by its profound aesthetic beauty. It is the perfect piece for those who appreciate the historical depth and sophisticated elegance of global, museum-quality design. Curl up beneath this treasure and let the artistry of a thousand years soothe your soul.
Fun Facts about Islamic Culture and Art:
The Power of Blue Pigment: Historically, the deep blue color, often seen in tiles and textiles, was achieved using costly cobalt mineral, making items with this hue highly prized and a symbol of luxury and imperial taste.
The Significance of Flowers: Unlike Western art, where flowers often symbolize fleeting beauty, in Islamic art (especially Persian and Ottoman), the highly stylized blossoms and vines represent the permanent, eternal life found in Paradise (Jannah), suggesting endless renewal and vitality.
A Geometric Undercurrent: Even within this flowing floral design, there is a fundamental adherence to the principles of geometric harmony. The placement and repetition of the Arabesque motifs are often governed by underlying, complex geometric grids, showcasing the intellectual foundation of this decorative style.
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of a Persian palace with "The Sapphire Serenity Throw Blanket." This elegant, luxurious throw features a stunning Oriental floral pattern (Arabesque) in a rich, calming palette of deep sapphire and sky blue, accented with subtle contrasting colors. Inspired by the classic tilework and textiles of the Middle East and the Ottoman Empire, this blanket is a masterpiece of sophisticated design. Its plush texture offers exceptional warmth and comfort, making it the perfect accent piece to drape over your couch, armchair, or bed. Instantly elevate your home decor with this culturally rich, serene, and visually mesmerizing blanket.

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.
