About This Design

Throw Blanket - Billiards

Throw Blanket - Billiards

In the 19th century a poolroom was a horse race betting parlour. Pool tables were installed so the bettors could pass time between horse races. Billards, or pool, is the descendant of a game similar to croquet that was played in 15th-century Europe. Though we don't know for sure, it is strongly suspected that billiards came to America with Dutch and English settlers. By the 1700's, skilled cabinet makers were crafting beautiful tables, though the equipment was, otherwise, quite primitive. Fifteen-ball pool came on the scene in the late 1800's and grew in popularity through the 1940's. Billiards was revived in 1961 with the release of the movie THE HUSTLER. It enjoyed another surge in the mid 1980's with the release of the movie sequel, COLOR OF MONEY. Since that time, there has been an evolution of the environs in which we find pool tables -- they're in restaurants and night clubs and sports bars, allowing pool to find a modern audience and new generations of enthusiasts. This marvellous design is layers of billiard balls in varying sizes for greater depth. They are scattered all over a "green felt" backdrop. This fabulous throw blanket is an excellent choice for Father's Day or for your favourite pool shark.

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.
