Carroll Irish Heritage Woven Blanket | O'Carroll Family Crest Tartan Throw

Carroll — from the Gaelic Ó Cearbhaill, meaning descendant of Cearbhall, a personal name rooted in the word for ‘fierce in battle’ — is one of the great surnames of Ireland. The O’Carrolls were a powerful Gaelic dynasty of County Offaly, rulers of the ancient kingdom of Éile whose lineage stretched back to the earliest recorded history of the island. Their name has been carried across Leinster and Munster for over a thousand years and remains one of the most recognisable in the Irish tradition.

This woven blanket honours that extraordinary lineage. The Irish tartan is constructed on the loom with the deliberateness such a name demands — the pattern built into the structure of the cloth thread by thread, inseparable from the textile itself. There is no surface layer that can wear away; the design runs through the full depth of the piece.

The cotton yarn is chosen for the quality of its twist and the evenness it gives to the finished surface. The fringe at each end forms naturally as the weave concludes — the honest ending of a piece made with complete intention from the first thread to the last.

• Premium cotton yarn
• Woven, not printed — pattern runs through the full textile
• Available in 52"×37", 60"×50", and 80"×60"
• Fringed edges — a natural finish to the woven structure
• Machine wash cold, tumble dry low

For the Carroll and O’Carroll family — a piece worthy of one of Ireland’s oldest and most enduring Gaelic names. Celtic Ancestry Gifts also carries the Carroll design across mugs, apparel, ornaments, and a full range of heritage products.
