Imbongolo Merino Wool Throw

Handwoven Heritage, Timeless Comfort

The Imbongolo Throw is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, meticulously handwoven on an Imbongolo (donkey) portable loom—a traditional method that has been passed down for generations. This weaving technique allows artisans to create one-of-a-kind pieces with a distinct texture and an organic, artisanal feel.

Made from 100% Merino wool, this blanket embodies the softness, warmth, and durability that Merino wool is known for. Every fibre is hand-carded and hand-spun, ensuring a truly natural and authentic finish. The result is a lightweight yet incredibly warm blanket, perfect for adding a touch of elegance and comfort to your home.

Pure & Natural in Every Way

The Imbongolo Throw comes in an off-white, natural wool colour, free from harsh dyes or chemicals. Its soft, neutral tone makes it a versatile addition to any space, blending seamlessly with both contemporary and traditional interiors. Whether styled over a bed, draped across a couch, or wrapped around your shoulders, this blanket exudes warmth and sophistication.

Two Sizes for Every Space

• 130 x 180cm – A perfect throw for cosying up on the couch or layering over a chair.
• 130 x 230cm – A more generous size, ideal for beds or as an elegant wrap for chilly evenings.

A Statement of Luxury & Sustainability

Unlike mass-produced textiles, each Imbongolo Throw is crafted with care and patience, celebrating the beauty of slow, intentional craftsmanship. The use of hand-spun wool enhances the uniqueness of each piece, ensuring that no two blankets are exactly alike. This is a blanket that tells a story—one of tradition, skill, and the beauty of natural fibres.
