Vintage Throw Blanket with Unfinished Embroidered Flowers 69" x 62.5" | Fringed Woven hot Coverlet with Wool Yarn Embroidery
SEE SHIPPING POLICY BELOW. Beautiful vintage throw blanket made of woven cream-color wool fiber with wide blue fringe and embroidered flower garlands and scattered blossoms. Please note that the embroidery is UNFINISHED; the blanket came from the estate of a woman whose craft was needleworking of all sorts; sadly, she left this piece unfinished. It likely came in a kit from the 1970s. We believe the coverlet is made of wool, although we gave it a quick dip and it came out perfectly--so maybe acrylic?? The floral motif, executed in wool yarn, features 10 garlands of a variety of flowers in lovely colors and a scattering of 44 blossoms. Of the 10 garlands, 1 and a half are unfinished, and of the 44 scattered blossoms, 6 are finished, and 3 have been started. The blanket is in excellent unused vintage condition. Lightweight and soft. As mentioned, we gave it a quick wash and it smells clean and fresh. There are no tears, stains or other damage. A small area of the unfinished pattern is slightly faded, but the finished areas can be used for guidance. The blanket measures 69" long x 52.5" wide, with a 5" blue wool fringe on each of the short sides (making it approx. 62.5" wide). If it's to be used as a coverlet on a bed, it will just cover the top of a queen-size mattress; there would be a slight drop on each side of a full-size mattress and a larger drop on a twin. It makes a perfect sofa throw, and it's a great project for someone skilled with a needle. It's already beautiful; will be stunning once finished. Please see photos and use zoom and feel free to ask questions before buying. Yarn for finishing is not available.
A NOTE ABOUT VINTAGE: Everything we sell at AlegriaCollection is vintage, meaning that it's at least 20 years old, often much older. Consequently, most of our items show evidence of previous use and, in general, this is viewed as adding to the aged character of a piece. We make every effort to accurately describe any flaws and encourage you to carefully read the description, particularly when purchasing vintage as a gift.

Therefore, we make no warranties, express or implied, as to the safety of any and all items. Vintage electric and electronic items should be inspected by qualified professionals and used accordingly. Other items, such as toys, likely will not meet today's safety standards, and are sold as collectibles only, not for use by children.
