Throws

The throw is a must-have accessory, especially if you want a cozy and comfortable interior. This light and decorative blanket can be made from various materials. It can also come in several colors and patterns. Finding the perfect throw, one that makes you feel good and that seamlessly blends into the decor of your living room or bedroom, is possible!

Why a throw blanket?

Looking back over the years, the throw was initially a small blanket used to keep warm while traveling. It was particularly in the region of Scotland that it was used. At the time, it was associated with traditional tartan. Today, the throw is still used during long journeys by train or plane. However, it can also be found in several rooms of the house. The throw has the advantage of being more practical and manageable than a blanket. Depending on its size, the throw can cover a baby, a child, or even an adult. A throw can indeed be small, but some of them can be up to 170 cm long, or even more. Some people even use throws as scarves, to face the coldest seasons. For others, it is primarily used as a blanket, or as a decorative element in an apartment or house.

Throws: what materials to choose?

Throws can be crafted from various materials, offering a wide selection to find the most comfortable option, depending on their intended use. For instance, a throw made from soft, fluffy cotton gauze provides a light, soft, and airy blanket—perfect for when temperatures rise and a lighter covering is desired. Linen throws, on the other hand, boast a beautiful drape when placed on a sofa or bed, lending a timeless elegance to any room. Linen throws are also easy to maintain and durable, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. For snuggling up on long winter evenings, a Merino wool and cotton throw, like the one offered by Bonsoirs, is the perfect blanket. This premium throw effectively warms without feeling stifling. Both warm and lightweight, this blanket creates a delightful cocooning atmosphere.

The throw: both a comfortable and decorative accessory

A throw offers several advantages, making it an indispensable accessory in any home. It can add an extra decorative touch to a room, whether it’s the living room, entryway, or bedroom. It is, in fact, often used to enhance a beautiful sofa, armchair, or bed. It can also be used to cover an old piece of furniture or a worn sofa, giving it a new lease on life. As a blanket, a throw can be used to warm up when evenings turn chilly. Many find wrapping themselves in a throw to be a true delight. It indeed provides a wonderfully pleasant sense of cocooning and relaxation. The throw, made of wool & cotton, for instance, has thus become a versatile and essential accessory with numerous uses.
