{"product_id":"fitz-william-surname-irish-heritage-woven-blanket-4667367","title":"FitzWilliam Irish Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe FitzWilliam name carries one of the most widely recognised Norman patronymics into the Irish record — William, the name of the Conqueror himself, was the most prestigious given name in the entire Norman world, and the Fitz-William families who appear in Irish history were among the many descendants of men who bore this most Norman of names. The FitzWilliams settled across Leinster and the Dublin Pale as part of the great Anglo-Norman settlement, and the name appears in Irish records through the medieval and early modern periods as part of the established Norman-Irish gentry. This Irish woven blanket honours the FitzWilliam name, featuring the family crest against the Irish National Tartan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe FitzWilliams were a recognisable family in the Pale and Leinster counties, associated with landholding and civic life in the region around Dublin and the surrounding counties. The name — reflecting the enormous importance of William as a Norman given name — connects to the broadest possible Norman-Irish heritage, a heritage that in Ireland produced some of the island's most enduring family names. The FitzWilliam crest carries that long tradition, from the Norman landing to the settled Anglo-Irish world of the early modern period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blanket is woven using premium cotton yarn — the FitzWilliam family crest and the Irish National Tartan integrated into the textile during weaving, not applied as a surface print. The design is part of the cloth structure from the beginning: consistent woven depth on both sides, a soft but substantial feel from the cotton, and traditional fringed edges that complete the piece in keeping with its quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: premium cotton yarn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: woven, not printed — pattern formed within the textile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable sizes: 52″ × 37″, 60″ × 50″, 80″ × 60″\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: traditional fringed edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: machine wash cold, tumble dry low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDraped across a sofa, laid over a reading chair, or displayed on a wall in a study or family room — this blanket carries the FitzWilliam name into a home in a natural and lasting way.
