Beautiful colors

My review is for a vintage Kantha throw I recieved yesterday. Less than 3 weeks of ordering. The colors are far more vibrant than the picture! It says to dry clean but I washed mine on delicate in washer and on low dryer. All good! It had a chemical smell when I first opened. I am so happy with my purchase and will surely buy more.
