What are the characteristics of a fur blanket?

The fur blanket and animal welfare

There are fur blankets made of real fur, which are becoming increasingly frowned upon. The reason is the heightened awareness of animal welfare. Fur animals are kept in cages and have no opportunity to behave according to their species. Tight wire cages made of grid panels are now the usual housing systems for fur animals on farms. Animals that would avoid each other in the wild are housed side by side in very confined spaces. When one examines this more closely, it seems only logical to completely refrain from using real fur. Mister Sandman takes animal welfare seriously and does not sell blankets made of real fur.

What types of fur blankets are there?

Real furs are still produced today, but they are no longer as popular as they used to be. Animal welfare has contributed significantly to the increased use of faux furs. Real furs are made from:

Sable
Fox
Chinchilla
Coyote
Lamb
Mink
Rabbit
Opossum

Faux fur blankets are more popular. Firstly, they are more affordable, and secondly, you don't have to feel guilty that animals have died or been mistreated for a fur blanket.

Different sizes of a fur blanket

Many different models in various sizes give you the opportunity to find the right fur blanket - faux fur blanket for your needs. No matter if you are looking for a fur blanket - faux fur blanket as a bedspread, large cuddle blanket, or handy blanket for couch and sofa, a large part of the fur blankets is available in the sizes:

150x200 cm
170x220cm
220x240cm

Fur blankets made from natural hair

Those who google fur blankets will quickly find what they are looking for. They shine in all colors, shapes, and price categories. Where is the difference? Primarily, the difference lies, as with all textiles, in the material and processing. Elaborately crafted faux fur can be made from lamb wool, sheep wool, or expensive alpaca wool. Other types of wool are also conceivable. The wool is woven, hence the name faux fur, and processed into a fur blanket. They are available as bedspreads, plaids, throws, or as cozy floor mats; even as pet mats for sale.

Faux fur throw and quality

Another difference lies in how high the fur is woven. The quality category of long pile carpets is well known. Real fur throws are priced around 150 euros. Depending on design, coloring, processing, and animal hair, the price can vary significantly upwards.

Animal-friendly alternative: faux fur throws

Even faux fur throws share the same name and initially look quite similar in pictures. A big difference lies in the tactile experience. But also in the smell, faux fur is made from synthetic fibers and feels different, similar to a synthetic shirt, compared to a cotton shirt. In terms of price, this form of throw is hard to beat. Some models are already available from 15 euros.

Quality differences in faux fur throws

Tip: When purchasing, the flammability of the material should never be underestimated. Especially, faux fur throws made of plastic do not belong directly in front of the fireplace. Faux fur home textiles are the contemporary alternative to the luxury of fur throws from days gone by. These faux fur home textiles sweeten your everyday life and beautify your own four walls.

Faux fur throw for use

What could be more beautiful than this luxurious furnishing of your living spaces with cozy faux fur home textiles like throw blankets and matching beautiful cushions in different sizes and, if you want, also in different, coordinating colors. They bring out the most beautiful side of the dark season.

Fur blanket in summer

But even in summer, when the evenings are cool, a blanket or throw is excellent for keeping warm on the terrace or balcony. Treat yourself to a vacation on the sofa. Children are thrilled when they can snuggle up in a blanket in the evening and listen to a bedtime story.

Faux fur blanket as an eye-catcher

Where would a faux fur blanket not be suitable as a beautiful eye-catcher? Presented in various ways, your fur blanket looks just the way you like it. Also, as a bed cover, these elegantly shaped blankets are perfect for enhancing the ambiance. This way, you always keep the option open to change the visual effect of your bedroom and vary it according to the season or mood. As bedspreads, the blankets and throws spread charm and coziness, and in combination with our matching cushions, a room can be completely redesigned.

Faux fur significantly better than real fur

Overall, the selection of faux fur blankets made from – ethically correct – faux fur is still relatively small on the internet. Inexplicably so, because faux fur blankets are just like the furs of the animals that serve as models: they provide wonderful warmth, are cuddly soft, and beautiful. High-quality faux fur blankets are often hardly distinguishable from fur blankets made from animal furs. However, when using such faux fur blankets, one can have a clear conscience regarding the animals. And how beautiful such a faux fur blanket can be as a bedspread, many still do not know. After all, bedspreads and bed covers are generally made mostly from cotton and cotton blends. Of course, there are also fans of very high-quality bedspreads made from fine natural hair, but the bedspread made from faux fur from fine faux fur is hard to come by.
