Kharetsa – The Rarest Bloom of Basotho Blankets

Inspired by the endangered spiral aloe—found only in Lesotho’s Maluti Mountains—the Kharetsa blanket is a living tribute to Africa’s botanical royalty. This exquisite design places the sacred succulent at its heart, framed by traditional Basotho hat and shield motifs. More than a blanket, it is a wearable masterpiece, celebrating mountain heritage and natural resilience.

Crafted for Generations

  • 50% Fine Merino Wool / 50% Acrylic – A perfect balance of cloud-like softness and fortress-like durability
  • Legendary Colorfast Weave – Built to Last: ✅ Shrink-proof – Holds its ceremonial drape forever
    ✅ Fade-resistant – Vibrant as the Maluti wildflowers
    ✅ Pill-free – Stays smooth against skin
    ✅ Scratch-proof – Gentle enough for newborns
  • Ethically Woven – Made in South Africa from renewable African virgin wool, supporting sustainable craftsmanship

The Sacred Symbolism

  • Spiral Aloe Centerpiece – Represents healing, rarity, and natural wisdom
  • Basotho Hat Motifs – A tribute to cultural identity and tradition
  • Shield Patterns – Symbolizing protection and courage

Heritage Care Instructions

To preserve the beauty of your Kharetsa blanket:

  • Hand wash in mountain-cool water (below 30°C)
  • Dry flat on clean towels (like Lesotho’s sun-drenched rocks)

"The spiral aloe endures harsh winters to bloom anew—just like the people who cherish this blanket."
