Full Description:

Woven in Scotland, this vintage throw continues a woolen tradition stretching back centuries. By the 16th century, mills in the Southern Uplands were crafting patterned fabrics prized for their durability and warmth, a heritage preserved through generations of skilled weavers.

This “Moffat Woollens” throw blends 55% mohair, 40% wool, and 5% nylon, combining softness, resilience, and lasting strength. Mohair, a fine, lustrous fiber from Angora goats, was introduced into Scottish weaving in the 19th century, adding sheen and warmth to the classic wool base, while nylon provided modern reinforcement in the mid-20th century.

Its tartan-inspired palette of green, blue, and red reflects the distinctive design sensibilities of mid-century Scottish textiles, merging practicality with artistry. Measuring approximately 4 feet by 5 feet, it embodies the expertise of hands and loom in a long-established Caledonian craft, a cozy heirloom that carries both comfort and history.

Perfect for:
• Collectors of vintage Scottish or British textiles
• Lovers of classic tartan patterns and traditional craftsmanship
• Adding warmth and texture to home décor

Each piece is unique, showing natural variations consistent with vintage fiber blends and loomwork.
