Super soft and plush, this popular Pottery Barn throw blanket is big on texture and unrivaled in sophistication. The shorter, dense pile emulates the appearance of real fur, but it's actually made with an acrylic and polyester blend that delivers long-lasting durability (as does the velvety soft liner). It’s available in two sizes: a 50 x 60-inch standard throw size and an oversized 60 x 80-inch blanket size. For top dollar, you also get some standout features—we’re talking certified OEKO-TEX certification and machine wash convenience.

Faux fur blankets exude decadence, so it’s natural to assume they’d all cost a pretty penny. The Chanasya Throw is a notable exception to such expectations. At an extremely affordable price point, the Chanasya Throw still delivers softness, durability, and an extensive range of sizes and colors to choose from.

The throw features two different panels and textures: faux fur and a buttery-soft underside similar to shearling. Despite its softness, though, it’s tough and stands up to frequent use. As our reviewer notes, it can “handle a lot of action.” Because it’s neither expensive nor delicate, she adds, “you won’t feel bad using it in the car, taking it camping, or bundling up in it on the porch.”

The blanket comes in natural, neutral tones like gray and brown, as well as vibrant colors like pink and teal. It comes in twin, full/queen, and king sizes, along with a 50 x 65-inch model and a 60 x 70-inch model.

Buttery soft to the touch, this throw is still pretty weighty, lending substantial comfort whether you cocoon yourself in it for a movie night or simply drape it across your bed. And with backing made of velvety poly suede, you’ll be cozy whichever way the blanket is turned. That backing material and soft, shed-free upper layer is evidence of how good the quality is. It's offered in either gray or white—two neutrals that can add sumptuous texture to almost any space.

This blanket is oversized and overly soft. The top layer features thick, brushed fabric that echoes the multi-tonal hues of real fur, while the liner underneath is made of soft sheared faux rabbit fur. Unlike some faux fur blankets on the market, this pick resembles authentic fur.

This blanket comes in three sizes: a luxe, oversized option measuring 58 x 84 inches and a more compact model that measures 58 x 36 inches, plus one in the middle. There are several available styles depending on where you shop, including amber fox, chinchilla, coyote, and gray snakeskin.

To add sumptuous texture to a space, consider a plush faux fur blanket with a long pile and brushed tips as an accent piece. A throw such as this one from West Elm creates exceptional visual interest when juxtaposed with a smooth, leather couch or a minimalist space. Just be sure to note that this throw from West Elm measures 60 x 47 inches, so it's a bit on the shorter side.

Best Colorful: Hashtag Home Alessandra Blanket

While you’ll never find a true fur blanket in shades like aubergine and bright pink, that doesn’t mean you can’t get your hands on a faux fur blanket in a vibrant, eccentric shade. A great example is the Alessandra Blanket from Wayfair, which comes in a slate of over 20 colors that conform to a sophisticated palate.

In addition to the dark rose or aubergine purple, you'll find colors like rose dust, soft lilac, and tan blue. Not to mention, there are six different sizes from which you can choose. Whether you’re simply going for a decorative touch or an all-encompassing wrap, you’ve got options.

It may sound counterintuitive, but if stress and anxiety are weighing you down, it’s possible a weighted blanket can offer some comfort. This weighted blanket from Beautyrest comes in two different weights, so you can choose the one that’s right for you. (It's recommended to go with whatever is closest to 10 percent of your body weight.) Offered in a few different colors, this blanket masks its utilitarian function with an upscale aesthetic.
