Supreme comfort is a tradition at John Atkinson.

Producing truly luxurious
blankets & throws

John Atkinson traditional wool blankets are woven and hand finished in West Yorkshire, England. Our blankets dress the homes of Royalty across the globe and are the perfect finishing touch to any home.

Woven with generations of experience

Cocoon yourself in one of our blankets and you’ll experience a wonderful warmth, certainly, but also a profound sense of wellbeing, leading to more restful sleep. This is made possible by the decades of craftsmanship and skill that go into the creation of every piece.

Our commitment to sustainability

Every day, we work hands-on with an entirely natural product, so sustainability is close to our hearts. But it’s more than just a promise, it’s a commitment to future generations that they too can enjoy the same level of luxury only offered by a John Atkinson blanket.

“I am delighted with this lovely blanket, so delighted that having bought one I quickly bought a second. These blankets are so light yet very warm and they snuggle round ones body making a very comfortable covering. I used a duvet for years but now I’m a blanket convert.”

Claire, Eastleigh

“This blanket is beautifully made and very warm and cosy. Ideal for staying warm in bed on cold winter nights.”

Kate, Gloucestershire

“Great woollen blanket. These are the best. The waffle design seems to trap warm air and surrounds you in absolute warmth and comfort.”

Isabel, Berkshire

“This blanket serves the ‘not too warm, not too cool’ nights when a duvet is too warm and a sheet just a bit too cool. It is light weight and gives just the right amount of comfortable warm on those ‘not yet Summer, but not really Spring’ nights.”

Stephen, Leicester

“Excellent blanket to use instead of a duvet cover for those warm summer nights. Just the right weight and size for a superking duvet – we love it.”

Cally, Northumberland

“Absolutely delighted with this purchase. Blanket is great quality merino wool, not heavy in position and very soft to the touch. I think this blanket will pay dividends during the winter months. Would definitely purchase again.”

Sharon, Cornwall

Sleep plays a pivotal role in our health and wellbeing.

According to the Sleep Foundation, adults typically require 7-9 hours of sleep per night, yet as many as 1 in 5 people in the UK don’t achieve this and suffer from poor sleep quality.

Prolonged periods of poor sleep can lead to a variety of health concerns; from compromised cognition, a weakened immune system, to an increased risk of depression and poor physical health.

Getting a good night’s sleep is about starting with the right foundations. One solution is John Atkinson woollen blankets, which offer a number of sleep benefits.
