A fusion of our much-loved Smaug and Oakenshield patterns features on a beautiful Mako cotton gradient of silvers. The fearsome dragon is picked out in Bamboo viscose which alternates with wild silk and cotton. The play of these yarns against the smooth shine of Mako cotton provides a delightful contrast which gives the fabric grip and definition.
An intricately detailed, silvery Smaug appears against the steel lustre of Dwarf shields. Beneath the great beast Elven script translates as, "My teeth are swords; my claws are spears! My wings are a hurricane." This iconic quote, spoken by Smaug himself, echoes the dragon's immense power and the unstoppable force he represents and the challenge facing Thorin and his company.
This wrap is incredibly soft and thin in hand, providing a satisfying wrapping experience as it moulds into place with an ideal amount of grip and glide. Lovely to use with younger babies, it can also be used to wrap bigger children in multi-layer carries. The lightness and breathable qualities make it great for warm climates, but this fabric will lend itself to any occasion. The eye-catching pattern and stunning shine make this a statement piece that’s perfect for any Tolkien fan.

Smaug is the fearsome dragon who ousted King Thrór and the Dwarves of Erebor within the Lonely Mountain. Smaug was "the greatest of the dragons of his day", after driving the Dwarves out of the Mountain he remained for the next 150 years guarding his hoard before the arrival of Thorin Oakenshield and co. to oust him with the help of Bilbo and Gandalf.
This illustrative design was based on the wonderful descriptions of Smaug in The Hobbit, with his fiery red scales and magnificently menacing features. Intricate scales cascade down Smaug's back as a fireball erupts from his awesomely powerful jaws, falling across his wings in an incomparable depiction of the mighty beast slain by the Bard at Laketown.
"My armour is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail is a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!" - Smaug.
