Cleverly designed to keep warm in the winter and cool in the summertime, enjoy our cloud-like lightweight decorative throw blanket as a comfy warm throw blanket for winter or as a light throw blanket for summer. Handcrafted via a laborious and time-intensive process, from warping the looms to twisting the fringes or tassels at the very end of the process, these pieces require expertise, a trained eye, and unparalleled craftsmanship. One throw can grace 20 different women’s hands throughout the creation process. Not only are they insulating yet breathable, but oh-so-soft and luscious, hugging you with a warmth that feels like sleeping inside a cloud.

By working directly with our women-led cooperatives and like-minded grassroots organizations, we cut out the cost of working through a middleman. Our prices reflect the quality and craftsmanship required to create luxury products, while directly benefiting the communities creating them.
Women are monumentally impacted by systemic poverty. Consider (just a few of) the facts: only ⅓ can read or write, over one million per year are captured by human trafficking, and in low- and middle-income countries, giving birth after a forced child marriage is a leading cause of death. That’s why every purchase empowers women to overcome socio-economic barriers and live safer, healthier lives by developing their skills through vocational training and helping to develop the resources for a sustainable future.
