Blankets are an important part of Moroccan culture, due to the desert climate. Handwoven textiles are woven on home looms and given as gifts to mark special occasions and milestones. Fun Fact: Most exquisitely adorned of all Moroccan blankets is the handira, or wedding blanket which can be detailed with sequins, tassels, braids, and pompoms. You don’t need to be a blushing bride to enjoy our handiras. This Verve Culture blanket is a versatile but simple version. How They Are Made: Made with hand dyed, natural cotton that softens with age and care, and oversize pompoms that dance when worn, these blankets add texture and personality when strewn across a bed or sofa. Flecks of metallic fiber that run through the fabric catch the light and twinkle. Better with Time - Like a long friendship, the natural cotton in our Moroccan blankets arrives with a bit of coarseness to them, but the fibers relax as the blankets are lived in and loved in.*Please Note: Color variations may occur (lighter or darker) due to the blankets being hand-dyed. Care: Dry clean only.
