Marks & Spencer
Rockett St George Patterned Throw Black Mix
£75
Price History
Description
A tapestry inspired pattern gives this Forever Rebel throw from Rockett St George a bold, textured look for a sofa, bed or reading nook. Fringed edges and a generously sized medium throw add a layered finish that works equally well as a picnic blanket or hung as wall art. The weave feels durable yet relaxed, providing a tactile layer that suits both classic and eclectic interiors.
Our Stylist Says
I love this throw because of its bold pattern and vibrant colours, which can instantly add visual interest to a neutral sofa or bed. It works especially well in contemporary or eclectic interiors, where a pop of colour can really lift the space. For styling tips, try draping it casually over the arm of a sofa to create a cosy, lived-in look, or fold it neatly at the foot of the bed as a striking accent. Its multicoloured design makes it versatile enough to coordinate with a variety of colour schemes, while the pattern adds a touch of personality without overwhelming the space. Practical and lively, it’s perfect for adding warmth and style during cooler months.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
