Lee Irish Woven Blanket | O'Lee Family Crest Throw

Lee is one of the most common surnames in Ireland and one of the most divided — a single spelling covering a Gaelic line and an English one. This premium heritage woven blanket honors the Lee family crest against the Irish National Tartan.

History & Heritage

The Gaelic name is Ó Laoidhigh, and its most distinguished branch served as hereditary physicians in the west of Ireland — a real profession handed down within one family across generations, at a time when medical learning here was held in exactly that way. The English Lees, by contrast, take their name from the old word for a woodland clearing and arrived with settlement. Cork's river adds a third layer of confusion, since the Lee there has nothing to do with either family. For anyone tracing the name, the west and south-west point toward Ó Laoidhigh; the east and north generally do not.

Woven Craftsmanship

This is cloth with the design built in — 100% premium cotton, woven rather than printed, with traditional fringed edges.
