I was looking for an interesting texture to go on a velvet chair that I bought (on Wayfair) for our new guest bedroom (after our youngest moved out to go to college). This Cotton throw was just right for the job. I draped it diagonally over the back of the chair and it looks like a designer's graceful touch. I love how soft it is. It's light--not something you'd use to warm up on a winter day, but perfect for a quick nap or a cozy read. Exactly what I was looking for!
