How to choose the right size

Don’t measure just the seat! To properly cover the sofa including the armrests, calculate the “route” the fabric will take:

• Length (Side to side): Measure from the point where you want the throw to start on one side, go over the first armrest, across the seat, and down over the other armrest.
  • Tip: Add +20cm so you can tuck it into the joints to keep it from moving.
• Width (Back to front): Measure from the back of the sofa, over the cushion, down to the feet of the sofa.

Cotton & Polyester

This is a blended fabric (usually in ratios of 50/50, 70/30, or 80/20). It is the most practical solution for the modern household, as it combines the best qualities of both worlds.

Chenille

Chenille gets its name from the French word for caterpillar, due to its "hairy" yarn. It is one of the most classic choices for throws as it is a heavy fabric, drapes beautifully, and does not slip easily.

Weaving Weight, internationally known as GSM (Grams per Square Meter), is the most objective indicator of the quality, thickness, and durability of a throw.

While the composition (e.g., 100% Cotton) tells us what the throw is made of, the GSM tells us how "rich" it is.
