An exceptional throw: a sumptuous cotton piece inspired by the iconic Mantas de Mira de Aire and crafted in Porto de Mós, at the heart of Portugal’s textile heritage.
Each throw is the result of unique artisanal craftsmanship, where traditional patterns are woven with remarkable precision. Its delicately fringed finish gives it a perfect drape, as elegant on a sofa as it is at the end of a bed.

Want to know more?
The Mantas de Mira de Aire are traditional Portuguese throws originating from the region of Porto de Mós, near the Mira de Aire caves in central Portugal. They are known for their unique geometric patterns—often waves, chevrons, or diamonds—and for their thick, heavy, highly durable weave.
Their production dates back several centuries and reflects the traditional hand-weaving techniques of rural Portugal. These blankets were designed to withstand harsh winters: dense, warm, and incredibly robust. The looms used are wooden, operated by hand or foot, following techniques passed down through generations.
