Why we love it
This Welsh blanket carries real weight both literally and historically, woven from pure new wool at a mill that's been running since the seventeenth century. The St David's Cross pattern draws from 1980s archive design inspired by Shaker weaving, giving it genuine character without feeling precious. Drape it across a bedroom chair or sofa where its reversible wool can be appreciated from both sides, and it'll become one of those pieces you reach for constantly.
