I have always been fiercely protective of my favourite faux-fur throw, and I was ready to keep it all to myself. With the nights getting colder and the icy wind sweeping across the streets, it has been the one thing that makes my evenings feel truly cosy. Now that it has landed in the Black Friday sale, I cannot keep it to myself any longer.
There is something about wrapping up in a throw like this that transforms a room. It fits perfectly with a cozy modern style, bringing both warmth and understated luxury to my living space. With all the Black Friday deals kicking off, it can be hard to spot something genuinely worth investing in, but this throw is one of the rare finds that actually lives up to the hype.
This is my love letter to the Pottery Barn Faux Fur Mink Throw. For evenings spent reading, watching TV, or simply escaping the chilly weather outside, it has become my go-to winter essential, adding a touch of calm, effortless luxury to the home.
With temperatures dropping and the evenings getting darker, there is nothing better than wrapping up in a luxury faux mink throw. It is incredibly soft, warm, and instantly makes even the chilliest nights feel cosy. Seeing it now in the Pottery Barn Black Friday sale makes it the perfect moment to add a touch of comfort and style to the home this winter.
I know what some people think when they see a fur throw: too flashy, too extravagant, only for palaces or perfectly styled Instagram homes. But honestly, they are surprisingly easy to work into everyday spaces. I’ve thrown one over a plain sofa, and suddenly the room feels far more inviting without ever looking like it’s trying too hard.
'I naturally lean toward richer tones and sumptuous textures, even in a quieter scheme,' says interior designer Sean Symington. 'Think antique golds, rich ochres, soft yellows, plush velvets, and soft faux fur. Anything with that beautifully tactile depth. These elements introduce warmth and tradition but in a refined way that doesn’t feel cluttered.'
