This large Welsh wool blanket dates from the early to mid 20th Century and displays a traditional honeycomb waffle weave pattern. The textile is worked in shades of sage green and pastel pink with a grid texture and a fringed border along two sides. One side appears predominantly pink while the reverse shows more green, and minor signs of use are present alongside a few very minor hitches. The blanket measures 234 cm high and 224 cm wide. Positioned traditionally at the foot of the bed or across seating, this piece suits an English Country House interior. The soft cellular structure provides warmth and texture while adding a heritage aesthetic to bedroom or living room schemes.

FAQs

A Welsh honeycomb wool blanket is a traditional textile woven in Wales using a cell structure or waffle technique that traps air for warmth while creating a distinctive three-dimensional grid pattern.

These blankets are woven on traditional looms using pure spun wool yarns, often featuring double-cloth or cellular structure techniques finished with twisted fringed edges.

Authentic pieces feature dense, high-quality pure wool, crisp cell weave structure, original mill labels from regions like Trefriw or Solva, and characteristic colour combinations like green and pink.

Drape the throw across the foot of a modern bed or over the arm of a neutral sofa to add geometric texture, subtle colour, and historical warmth to contemporary spaces.

Dry clean or gently hand wash in cold water using a specialist wool detergent, then dry flat away from direct heat to prevent shrinkage and fiber damage.
