What materials are used in de Le Cuona throws and blankets?
Our throws and blankets are crafted from heritage natural fibers such as wool, alpaca, linen, silk and cashmere, selected for their warmth, breathability, durability and rich natural texture.
Are de Le Cuona throws and blankets handmade?
Yes. Each Signature Collection piece is handmade in Windsor, England. Many of our LIFE Collection throws and blankets are also handcrafted by skilled artisans around the world. Both collections reflect our commitment to exceptional craftsmanship, quality and considered detail.
What size throw do I need for a sofa or bed?
For sofas, a throw should be large enough to drape generously across the seat, back or arm, adding softness and texture without overwhelming the furniture. For beds, a larger throw can be layered across the foot of the bed or spread across the entire surface for additional warmth, texture and visual interest.
How do I care for de Le Cuona throws and blankets?
Dry cleaning is recommended to help preserve the softness, structure and natural beauty of the fibers. Always follow the care instructions provided with each product.
Can I order a custom size or fabric?

How do you style a luxury throw on a sofa or bed?
Drape a throw casually over the arm or back of a sofa for a relaxed, effortless look, or fold it neatly for a more tailored appearance. On a bed, layer it across the foot or spread it across the entire bed to introduce texture, warmth and visual depth.
Which is warmer, a de Le Cuona throw or blanket?
The warmth of a throw or blanket depends primarily on the fibers used in its construction. Wool, alpaca and llama fibers are naturally insulating and tend to provide the greatest warmth due to their loft and thermal properties. Linen throws are lighter and more breathable, making them ideal for warmer climates or seasons. Silk and cashmere throws offer exceptional softness and warmth relative to their weight, but are generally lighter than our heavier wool and alpaca blankets.
Can I order throws and blankets in the United States?
Yes. We ship throws and blankets throughout the United States. Customers are also welcome to visit our New York showroom to experience the collections firsthand and receive guidance from our team.
