The Trail Blanket

$1,720.00
$1,720.00

This immensely soft blanket is hand-felted from 100% yak khullu. It takes three Norlha artisans an entire day to create, using traditional felting techniques combined with innovations developed at the Norlha Atelier. Its distinctive design features bands of contrasting colours which run across its length. Each blanket has a remarkable evenness across its surface and uniform weight. Norlha is the first atelier in the world to produce yak wool felt blankets of this scale and quality. This versatile piece can be used as a bed cover, sofa throw, wall hanging or picnic blanket.

The khullu used to make this blanket is a mix of two natural base colours, white and dark brown.

    ABOUT THE MAKER

    Norlha

    Norlha is the first yak wool atelier on the Tibetan Plateau, nestled in the remote village of Ritoma. For generations, the region’s nomadic community has spun, felted, and woven yarn from khullu, the fine undercoat shed by native yaks. Recognizing an opportunity to merge this rare material with the masterful craftsmanship of local artisans, Dechen Yeshi set out to create Norlha—a pioneering atelier and social enterprise dedicated to both exquisite craftsmanship and community empowerment.
