Description: From - Witney Blanket Story.org Many different groups of North American Native peoples prized point blankets for clothing and bedding because of their excellent insulating and water-repellent qualities. They were also boldly coloured and hard wearing without being too heavy. Colour was certainly an important factor for these discerning groups of consumers; different shades (and their intensity) often held spiritual meanings as well as acting as a personal or fashion statement. The manner of wearing a blanket could, according to tradition among some cultures, also denote status or a particular attitude or emotion of the wearer [5]. Far from being just practical household items, blankets had an established wider religious and cultural significance in this part of the World. In beautiful condition. This beautiful four point wool blanket measures 70"W x 82"L. I gave this blanket a good look and found a couple of areas that show a bit of wear. on the edge near the label, a small 'hole' near the edge and in the center a lighter area. Please ask any questions you may have.
