Burberry Cashmere House Check Blanket (140Cm X 140Cm)

For Burberry's most iconic motif, the House check, a happy accident led to its creation. In 1967, a buyer in the label's Paris store thought of using the checked lining of one of the brand's trench coats as a motif on a range of knitted pieces. Since, the pattern has adorned scarves, shoes, ready-to-wear and homeware, lending pieces like this cashmere blanket instantly recognisable flair that loses none of its preppy appeal.
