Pottery Barn Ruched Fur Throw Review

One of my favorite finds this year is the Pottery Barn Ruched Fur Throw. I love it so much that I thought I would do a review for you.

I’ve had my eye on this throw for quite some time – so this holiday season I decided I would treat myself and picked up not one but two of this cozy blanket.

About the Pottery Barn Ruched Fur Throw

The Pottery Barn Ruched Fur Throw comes in 2 sizes and a variety of colors.

One side of the throw is a soft, furry material that is somewhat gathered to create a sort of “bunchy” effect. According to the Pottery Barn site, this side is made from 85% acrylic, 13% polyester, and 2% spandex.

The underside of the throw is a smooth velour style material. This side is 100% polyester.

The top and bottom layers are only attached to each other around the edges so the blanket is even more “bunchy” throughout.

Overall, I think this makes it really cozy and gives the throw a nice “puddling” effect when you drape it over a sofa or chair.

Which Size Throw is Best?

The throw comes in the following sizes:

• The small throw is 50×60
• The large throw is 60×80

Because I couldn’t decide – I picked up one in each size.

My smaller blanket is Gray and the larger one is Ivory.

I’ll give you my initial thoughts on the sizes.

The first throw that I bought was the smaller one.

Both throws are a bit weighty so I thought the smaller one would be easier to wash (and it probably is).

However, once I brought the smaller throw home and put it to use, I realized that the larger blanket would probably be more cozy when snuggling on the couch and watching tv.

I found that with the smaller one, I was always adjusting it to try and get good coverage.

So, I decided to put the smaller throw over a stand alone chair and I brought home the larger throw for using on the couch.

What I Like the Most

There are many things about this throw to love:

• It looks gorgeous in your room
• The puddle like drape makes it look very upscale
• The blanket is very warm
• Great for snuggling on cold winter days

Things To Note

Here are a few things to be aware of:

• The throw does shed a bit
• It is very warm – so you may get too hot
• The weight is substantial so consider the size of your washing machine
• Washing instructions say to wash on cold, gently cycle and line dry (my sales associate also said to air dry – NOT to use dryer).

Would I Buy It Again?

I think the obvious answer here is – yes (since I did already purchase it twice)!

I love the look and feel of the Pottery Barn Ruched Fur Throw and it really fits with my decor.

While I do own both sizes of this throw, if I had to do it again – I would go for the larger size. I find the bigger size to be more comfortable, easier to snuggle, and best to share.
