Description
This 100% cotton throw holds fond memories for Emirati families. In the days when practicality meant survival, this blanket was used as a wrap to keep warm in the cooler months. It’s hard to believe now, but everything had a purpose and nothing was used just for decoration. How times have changed!
They are now used as a throw, an extra blanket or a handy picnic rug. We love it tossed over the back of the sofa, ready to cosy up in those chilly AC moments!
This traditional throw was made in India and makes a meaningful gift for those looking for a touch of the UAE.
The throw is woven in 100% cotton in a blue and white geometric pattern. It measures approximately 150 x 180cm in size and is machine washable. There may be small imperfections in the weave due to it’s workshop manufacture, but we think this just adds to their charm.
Each throw comes rolled and ribbon tied with a Little Majlis branded paper inset describing the history of the throw.

I love this blanket. Love it so much I bought another one to take with me on our move to the uk. I’ve kept it In a draw as an insurance for the first one which is now about 4.5 years old. The old one still looks like new, it’s washes up beautifully even with a young child & cats it still looks new. I think it will be with us for years to come & I love my beautiful keep sake from Dubai & my lovely friends at Little Majlis ♥️
