Seanamarena - Poone | Black/Scarlet/Natural
Today, the Seanamarena brand is considered the Royal Crown Jewel of all the Basotho blankets. This brand dates back to the 1930s when it was created by the late Mr Charles Hendry Robertson, who owned a trading store in Leribe called Seanamarena. The word ‘Seanamarena’ means ‘to swear by the Chiefs’. The Collection features the famous Poone design with its corncob motif. In Basotho culture, the corncob is a symbol of fertility and wealth. The Chromatic design derives its name from its creator’s initials C.H.R.
The blanket is composed of 50% Wool and 50% acrylic.
The Basotho blanket is woven with colourfast wool that:
- Won't shrink
- Won't fade
- Won't pill
- Won't scratch
Crafted in South Africa from naturally renewable African virgin wool, it also passes strict sustainability standards and ethical practices at our mill.
