Dark brown with a mink pile, glossy and supple. In the photo, the mahogany leans towards dark chocolate: a deep brown with no obvious red in it. This brown faux fur throw warms up a living room with walnut furniture, a leather club chair or a wood-panelled bedroom.
The pile, close up
Thrown over a bed next to a pine bedside table, it drops to the floor in heavy folds. The pile lies in one direction, with longer, shiny guard hairs that copy mink. Along the edges, the pile looks fuller and has a slight wave. The colour stays even from one end to the other.

Rooms and furniture it suits
Folded in three over the arm of a tan leather club chair, it carries on the brown of the leather. On a teal or bottle green sofa, it makes a contrast. At the foot of an ecru linen bed, it grounds a light bedroom, and it can hide a tired old sofa for a winter. To compare piles, read our guide to choosing a faux fur throw.
A sleek pile: what’s it for?
This pile folds without puffing up and looks neat over the back of a sofa, even when it’s folded tightly. It’s a living room throw to put over your knees in the evening, more than a nest for an afternoon nap. For an equally short pile in a light shade, see the mink throw in raspberry pink. What faux fur borrows from mink is explained in our list of the animal pelts faux fur imitates, and mink and long-pile throws share a single section.
Care
Shake it outside now and then. Always brush with the pile, never against it, to keep the guard hairs lined up. Wash it by hand in lukewarm water, or have it dry cleaned according to the label; no tumble dryer and no radiator. If a cushion has flattened the pile, the method for putting the bounce back into a flattened pile applies.
Questions about the mahogany
Does the brown look black?
In the photo, taken in daylight, it looks very dark brown, almost black in the folds. A dim room makes it look darker still.
Can I store it folded in a cupboard?
Yes, as long as nothing heavy sits on it. Packed tightly, the pile flattens, but a quick brush lifts it.
