Bird throws are commonly made from polyester (microfiber, fleece, or flannel) and cotton or cotton blends (including recycled cotton). Some styles use faux shearling or blended fillings (for example, 50% cotton/50% polyester). Backings are typically listed as 100% cotton or 100% polyester.
Common sizes include 50 × 60 inches and 60 × 70 inches, with some larger options around 80 × 60 inches. The 50 × 60 size is a frequent standard throw dimension.
Listings commonly use labels such as "Lightweight Fabric," "Midweight Fabric," and "Year Round" or "All-Season," indicating options from lightweight to midweight and year-round comfort.
Typical features include reversible designs, quilted or woven surfaces, printed (fleece or toile) patterns, long tassels, quilted fillings, and whip-stitched edges or other decorative touches.
Bird throws are multifunctional: they’re used as bed blankets or light quilts, couch or chair covers, end-of-bed layers, lap throws for travel or office use, and decorative accents around the home.
Fillings can include cotton/polyester blends (for example, 50% cotton/50% polyester). Backings are typically listed as either 100% cotton or 100% polyester, depending on the item.
