Girard Throw

Designed by Alexander Girard

A dream blanket

Girard Throw
In the mid-1960s, Alexander Girard designed this richly hued throw blanket as part of an astounding 17,543-item brand identity system – from logo to lounge furniture to bag tags – for Braniff International Airways. Recreated today by Pendleton – whose blankets Girard avidly collected – the designs are crafted from a blend of 82 percent naturally breathable, wrinkle resistant, high-quality virgin wool and 18 percent cotton.
