Although relatively thin, it offers strength and support, making it a great all-rounder, suitable from newborns to toddlers. It is soft straight from the bag, feels light in hand, offers a little cush and grip, ensuring a secure and snug carry.
The stunning interlocking shield pattern celebrates the Dwarf-Kings who ruled over the mines and wealth of The Lonely Mountain. It is picked out against a fade from warm chocolate to golden caramel. The sheen from the Egyptian cotton enhances the richness and warmth of this luxurious fabric. While the bourette and peace silk speckle the fabric with characteristic nubs and slubs to give a lovely unique look to each piece of fabric.

This pattern celebrates the Oakenshield lineage of Dwarf-Kings who ruled over the mines and wealth of The Lonely Mountain. You can find the names of the 3 prominent Kings inscribed in runes on the design - Thrór, Thráin and Thorin as well as their title 'King Under the Mountain' along the borders.
The Hobbit tells the story of Thorin Oakenshield's return to claim the Mountain hoard from the dragon, Smaug, who ousted his grandfather, Thrór from The Lonely Mountain and this design is an ode to that quest and the Dwarves' determination.
The design nods to the motifs and hard lines of Art Deco pieces, creating a series of decorative shields which feature straight-edged interlocking patterns reminiscent of Celtic knots but with a more industrial aesthetic, reflecting the nature of the Dwarves of Middle-earth. Hidden in the artwork are elements indicating the wealth they uncovered and the objects they skillfully crafted.
