Berlin-based furniture studio is led by the minds of Reinhard Wessling, David Spinner, and Christoph Steiger -- it now unveils the latest SEIDEL design. At a first glance, the SEIDEL appears to be a striped [throw blanket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ribbed-plush-blanket), which notably marks the first throw by the studio as well. However, at a closer look, the stripes boast a unique texture.

The blanket is made from [pure organic cotton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-wren) and has a velvety texture that is a result of repeatedly brushing the material after the throw has been woven. It is made in a [bright color palette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tekla-evelina-severin-and-layered) detailed with abstract shapes for an expressive design language. The throw is also produced at a traditional Bavaria weaving mill and comes in six colorways.
