Punatulkku means bullfinch in Finnish. It is a small passerine bird in the finch family. Metsovaara designed this stylish striped design in the late 1950s. Throw blankets in the same material were offered at Metsovaara stores in Finland and the finest department stores worldwide.
This fine fabric is now produced on slow-speed power looms with a distinctly hand-crafted appeal. This beautiful mohair and wool throw blanket, featuring fringes at the ends, will keep you warm this winter. At newly built state-of-the-art combing and spinning facilities, these natural fibers are transformed into unique variations of yarns. Woven in the original Punatulkku pattern, scaled in a larger than the original 120x180 cm size, the fabric is brushed to create a classic, fluffy form. All this means that a throw blanket from Metsovaara not only adorns any room but also provides high comfort and a genuine sense of craftsmanship and heritage.
With today's improved production methods, the material is more and resistant to washing.
