Palace of Knossos: Minoan Stripe Fleece Blanket
This fleece blanket, with its rhythmic, banded design, perfectly captures the sophisticated aesthetic of the Minoan palaces. It’s a piece of ancient history tailored for modern hedonistic comfort!
Trade your ordinary throws for a piece of legendary comfort! Wrap yourself in the rich history and breathtaking design of the Bronze Age with the Palace of Knossos: Minoan Stripe Fleece Blanket!
This ultra-soft fleece throw is a visual treasure, drawing its exquisite pattern from the distinctive geometric borders and banded designs found in the frescoes and ceramics of the magnificent Palace of Knossos on the island of Crete. The design features alternating stripes of interlocking circles, stylised scallops, and wave patterns in a refined palette of Aegean blues, charcoal grey, and earthy gold-brown.
These motifs are authentic to the Minoan civilisation (c. 2700–1450 BCE), a peaceful, sea-faring culture that celebrated nature, art, and life in motion. The rhythmic design evokes the constant ebb and flow of the Aegean Sea, the source of their power and wealth.
Did you know the Minoans are often credited with having the earliest known sophisticated, multi-story urban architecture in Europe? They truly knew how to build a luxurious life!
Made from lightweight, cosy fleece material, this blanket is perfect for snuggling on the sofa, adding a historical touch to your bedroom, or keeping warm while you indulge in an afternoon of reading. It makes an epic and comfortable gift for any history enthusiast, art lover, or anyone seeking to infuse their home with the timeless elegance of this enigmatic empire.
Bring the warmth and grandeur of a Minoan palace into your home today!

I ordered a blanket for my daughters 40th birthday. I live in the UK and she lives in Australia. The first blanket didn't arrive so Zazzle arranged a special delivery of another one. My daughter received the blanket on her birthday and absolutely loved it. Thank you Zazzle. I haven't seen the product but I'm told everything was good... printing, quality etc

Fleece Blanket, Medium 127 cm x 152.4 cm

The product is printed correctly, but there's white gaps where the fibres are showing the base colour. There's only 1 or 2mm of colour. If I made it again, I'd make it on a black blanket. The reason it's white underneath, is because I forgot to change it back. It was too hard to see the picture alignment wihtout it.
The software is clunky and not intuitive to use. I'm not a graphic designer, so I'm not used to photoshop and the like, so a lot of the settings, although I've seen them on my friend's computer, didn't make much sense to me.
Would I make another? Possibly. This one is for me, but I'm not sure about making it available as a product for my fans. It goes all the way to the edges, but not all the way through the fibres. Goodness help you if you can't match the colour of your background, because it will show through the image.
