Blue Grey Cashmere Overcheck Blanket – Scottish Woven Luxury

Product Description

Some blankets are made for keeping warm. Others bring a quiet sense of luxury to the everyday. Our Grey Cashmere Overcheck Blanket does both beautifully.

Woven and finished in Scotland, this exceptionally soft 100% cashmere blanket combines the understated elegance of a blue-grey base with a delicate off-white overcheck. The fine, contrasting lines create a beautifully balanced design, traditional in its weaving heritage, yet wonderfully contemporary in its simplicity.

The colour is particularly special. Somewhere between slate grey, soft charcoal and muted blue, it has that lovely depth and subtle variation you often find in the Scottish landscape. Think misty hills, winter skies and the shifting shades of the Solway coast. The fine ivory-toned check lifts the darker background, giving the blanket definition without overwhelming its calm, sophisticated appearance.

And then there is the cashmere itself...

Prized for its extraordinary softness, warmth and lightness, cashmere is one of the world's most luxurious natural fibres. Its fine fibres create a wonderfully gentle feel against the skin, while providing exceptional insulation without the weight or bulk of many traditional wool blankets. It is the sort of blanket you instinctively reach for and then find rather difficult to put down.

At a generous 147cm x 183cm, this is a substantial cashmere throw, beautifully proportioned for draping across a sofa, layering over the foot of a bed or wrapping yourself in on a chilly evening. There is plenty of room to properly snuggle beneath it with a book, settle down for a favourite film or enjoy a slow Sunday morning with coffee.

The blanket is finished with a traditional twisted fringe, a lovely detail that reflects the care and craftsmanship behind its Scottish production.

Cashmere is a considered purchase, but a beautifully made cashmere blanket is something to enjoy for many years. Unlike passing interior trends, its timeless design and natural quality give it enduring appeal. It also makes an exceptionally thoughtful gift for a wedding, anniversary, milestone birthday or new home, something luxurious, practical and personal that the recipient might never have treated themselves to.

A little everyday luxury, woven with generations of Scottish textile expertise and made to be treasured.

Styling Tip / Pairs Well With

The beautiful blue-grey colouring makes this an incredibly versatile cashmere blanket for both traditional and contemporary interiors.

For a relaxed, sophisticated look, drape it across a cream or oatmeal sofa, allowing the delicate off-white check and twisted fringe to fall naturally. It also looks stunning against navy, warm taupe, charcoal and natural oak.

In a bedroom, layer it across crisp white bedding for a boutique hotel feel, or combine it with soft blue and grey linens to create a calm, restful retreat.

If you love understated natural fibres and subtle pattern, explore our Moffat Navy Pure Cashmere Throw | Luxury Scottish Woven Blanket or Benmore Navy Blue Cashmere Throw for complementary textures and tones.

FAQs

Where are the blankets made?

We are proud to say that all of our blankets are 100% British, being woven in traditional textile mills in all four home nations.

Every piece is crafted using time-honoured techniques by skilled makers and thoughtfully designed to blend beauty, heritage, and everyday comfort.

Can I order a blanket as a gift to be sent to the recipient direct?

Absolutely, we can send your chosen blanket directly to the recipient — simply enter their name, address and your gift message at checkout.

To make it extra special, you can add our luxury gift wrap option: your blanket will arrive in a white gift box, wrapped in tissue and ribbon, with a handwritten card — perfect for birthdays, weddings, or just-because moments.

Are the blankets sustainably made?

Yes — sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. All of our blankets are crafted in the UK using 100% natural wool, a renewable, biodegradable fibre. Most of our collection is made from mono-material yarns, which simplifies recycling and supports a circular approach to home textiles.

We’re also proud to offer a Recycled Wool Collection, made by re-weaving surplus and leftover yarns that would otherwise go to landfill. These blankets are not only eco-conscious, but full of character — each one is unique.

We work exclusively with mills that prioritise ethical sourcing and animal welfare, ensuring our blankets are as kind to the planet as they are to people.

Are they made from natural materials?

They are indeed — all of our blankets are made from wool, a natural and renewable material. Unlike synthetic fibres, wool is fully biodegradable and won’t release plastic microfibres into the environment.

We choose mono-material yarns wherever possible, meaning our blankets contain just one fibre type. This makes them not only gentler on the planet, but also easier to recycle at the end of their life.

Do you delivery internationally?

Yes, we’re delighted to welcome international customers — it means so much to us that our blankets are loved around the world.

International shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on destination and weight. Wherever possible, we use your country’s trusted national postal service to ensure safe and reliable delivery.

We always aim to keep shipping costs fair and transparent, if you have any questions before ordering, we’re just a message away. Whether it’s a gift for a loved one or a treat for yourself, we’ll make sure your blanket arrives beautifully wrapped and ready to enjoy — no matter where you are.
