Karameloti refers to a style of traditional, hand-woven Greek textiles prized for their vibrant folk art patterns and geometric precision. Historically handcrafted on traditional looms, these durable pieces are most commonly utilized as heirloom bedspreads, blankets, coverlets, or decorative sofa throws. Meant for a bed, it can also be used to hang on a wall or display on a floor.

Key Characteristics & Origins

* Artisanal Craftsmanship Authentic vintage pieces—particularly those originating from regions like Crete or Naxos from the 1960s through the 1980s—were entirely handmade. Artisans traditionally raised the sheep, dyed the wool, and hand-loomed the fabric themselves.

* Features heavily textured, raised weave structures in a classic design showcase of bold red-and-white.

* Material Composition: They are typically woven from 100% raw wool, dense cotton, or a durable cotton-wool blend.
