Located at the intersection of trade routes from central Africa, the ancient Near East and the Classical world, ancient Nubia ruled the entire Nile Valley at the height of its power in the eighth century B.C. Its neighbor and frequent rival Egypt called it "the gold lands" because its territories held such an abundance of the precious metal, and because its inhabitants produced some of the most finely crafted jewelry of the ancient world. This book features over 100 adornments and personal accessories from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, which houses the finest collection of Nubian jewelry outside Khartoum. The first comprehensive introduction to the sophisticated jewels of this great empire, it reveals how Nubian artisans employed techniques that would not be reinvented in Europe for another two thousand years, and how the original owners valued such possessions not only for their inherent beauty, but also because they were imbued with magical meanings. Exquisite photography and an authoritative history written by leading experts make this book essential for both jewelry aficionados and anyone interested in the great cultures of the ancient world.Binding Type: Hardcover

Gorgeous & so soft!
Size: 50"x60", Color: Olive Green
This is hands down the most beautiful throw I’ve ever had. It’s so soft & luxurious on both sides, which is hard to find. It’s warm but not too warm ,just perfect! I got the olive green & it’s a beautiful shade, not too yellow or muddy. I don’t know why people report shedding issues, I wonder if there were some bad batches? Mine hasn’t shed at all. Just washed it for the first time, came out perfect. No lint at all in dryer screen.

For a luxurious throw,
Size: 50"x60", Color: Grey
I originally bought this throw just to have something cozy around the house—and I was immediately impressed with how unbelievably soft it is. After owning (and loving) a lot of blankets, I’ve realized most only have that plush, silky feel on one side. This one is different—it’s soft on both sides, with a weight and drape that feels genuinely luxurious.
The dark gray color is another standout. It looks elevated and expensive, and it’s held up beautifully through multiple washes without losing that silky texture at all. It honestly feels just as soft as the day we got it, which is rare.
But the reason I had to write this review is unexpected.
We’ve been sleep training our almost 1.5-year-old son, and this blanket somehow became part of the routine. It lives in his room, draped over the rocking chair for those long middle-of-the-night wakeups. Over time, he started pulling it down and choosing to sleep on top of it… on the floor.
We couldn’t tell if he preferred the floor—or the blanket.
So I tried something: I put the throw on his bed.
And just like that… he started sleeping in his bed.
Apparently, this blanket is the key to sleep training.
If you’re looking for something soft, durable, and genuinely cozy, this is already a great buy. But if you happen to have a toddler resisting bedtime… this might just be your secret weapon too.

Very soft. Wash only on gentle cycle in cold water and low tumble dry. Fabulous blanket.
Size: 50"x60", Color: Orange
So far so good. It was a little sheddy at first but then I washed it and it was fine. It is super soft even after being washed twice. Several people have commented on how soft it is and stated they thought it was a Minky couture. I washed it on gentle cycle in cold water and dried it on gentle low tumble dry. It does not seem to be shedding now. I washed it a second time and put vinegar in the rinse cycle because supposedly that is supposed to help bind the fibers or something. Still seems to be not shedding. It's probably the softest blanket I have every owned. When I wash it, I will continue to wash it on gentle in cold water and dry on either gentle low tumble dry r just air fluff. I read the heat good make the fibers loose and cause more shedding. If anything changes, I will update.

Quality of fabric may be less plush.
Size: 50"x60", Color: Tan
Very soft and plush blanket, although it not as thick and heavy as previously purchased in another color (same brand) it’s still a nice blanket.
