Jerome Blanket Robes
These blankets are robe size, the size preferred by Native Americans for ceremonial purposes and wrapping about oneself as a robe. They are impressive as wall hangings and practical when folded on a sofa or at the foot of a bed. Felt bound. 82% pure virigin wool/18% cotton. Dry clean. Made in the USA.
Long before the town boomed with prospectors in the 1880s, the territory was home to the Anasazi, Apache, Hohokam and Sinagua peoples. We re-created this late 1920s blanket design from our archives and named it after the ethereal, once-notorious city of Jerome. The pattern incorporates the nine-element diamond design common to Native American weavings of the area. Napped.
