Audubon Zenaida Dove with Flowers Throw Blanket
This serene pair of Zenaida Doves, perched delicately on a branch of white flowering blossoms and vibrant green leaves, beautifully embodies the grace and charm of these Caribbean birds. Captured in Plate 162 of John James Audubon’s Birds of America series, this vintage masterpiece reflects Audubon’s careful observation of nature and his rare encounter with this species nesting in the Florida Keys in the 1830s.
The Zenaida Dove, often mistaken for a turtle dove, is known for its soft, melancholy cry—a sound that adds to its air of quiet elegance. Though typically a resident of the Caribbean, this dove is only an occasional and transient visitor to the southernmost regions of Florida. It shares characteristics with its close relatives, the Mourning Dove and White-Winged Dove, but can be distinguished by its shorter, square-tipped tail and a prominent white spot on its wing, especially noticeable in flight.
Throughout history, artists have immortalised the Zenaida Dove in murals, books, and museum collections, a testament to its timeless beauty. This artwork, showcasing the gentle male and female pair, captures the essence of these birds as they rest quietly among the blossoms—a scene of peace and natural wonder.
Perfect for bird lovers, art enthusiasts, or anyone who appreciates Audubon’s legacy, this print makes a meaningful and elegant addition to any space, evoking the tranquillity of nature and the artistry of one of history’s greatest naturalists.

A beautiful small blanket that is perfect for covering your legs while curled up in  front of the fire, or for a decorative touch on the sofa.  We also think it looks brilliant as a Christmas table centerpiece.  We are delighted with it. The colors are absolutely perfect.  Vibrant yet traditional.  The pattern retains its lovely details despite the texture of the fabric.  Very classy product that will not disappoint as a gift.

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the cotton throw blanket.  It was made with such high quality.  I am just about to order another throw. The colors are so vibrate and the weaving is so neat.  Affordable as well.  I really love my throw.

A quality printed throw has its advantages. This is a much finer weave throw than its loopier cousins, and though lighter, it is worth the investment for custom room accessorizing. The back is much prettier than the typical brown, and the fringe on the long sides very vivid, the selvage nicely done. Before photographing, I washed the throw in cold water, delicate, with a thicker woven throw the same size. On tumble dry low, this throw was dry in half the time as the other. This is a very practical quality if you use throws for furniture covers or to wrap up in frequently. The sleekness of the fabric makes it a great layer for accenting or protecting without the feeling of sitting on too much stuff. Perfect for napping or when you feel a light chill coming on. The color printing is beautiful and on this fabric, matched the design and color of my Photoshop image. This is an advantage for blending room fabrics and colors. The fringe on the short sides prints the colors from the design image and therefore varies from the side fringe. I streaked a white fractal line through the plaid pattern to give the illusion of weaving. This printed as crisp as an illusory thread, and put some white in the short side fringe, showing another advantage of print vs loomed- for artistic purposes, line lines, detail, and color integrity can be planned and preserved. My loomed throws have color limitations and more of a needlepoint texture. Print throws reproduce an exact image. The throw felt a little stiff straight out of the package, but this went away in the first delicate wash. Of course I searched the wash water for ink or bleeding and there was none.
