Hayes Irish Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw

Hayes is one of Ireland's great Munster names. In Irish it is Ó hAodha, "descendant of Aodh," from an ancient personal name meaning fire, and separate Hayes families grew up across the province, strongest in Limerick and Tipperary. In west Cork the same Gaelic name became O'Hea, whose lords held Aghamilla near Clonakilty, while some Wexford Hayes families descend from the Anglo-Norman de la Haye. This Irish woven blanket features the Hayes family crest against the Irish National Tartan.

History & Heritage

Aodh was one of the most popular names in early Ireland, borne by kings and saints, so Ó hAodha took root independently in several places. The Munster Hayes of Limerick and Tipperary are the best known today, and the name remains one of the most common in Ireland, carried across the diaspora to America, Britain and Australia.

Construction

This blanket is woven from 100% premium cotton yarn, with the Hayes family crest and the Irish National Tartan created within the textile during weaving rather than applied to the surface. The design is part of the cloth itself: consistent woven depth, a soft and substantial feel, and traditional fringed edges.
