Crafted of soft and warm 100% merino wool, this reversible throw blanket is based on the original 1959 design "Sun and Lion" by Evelyn Ackerman, a creative powerhouse integral to the midcentury modern movement in California. Reimagined today in tonal browns with fringe detailing to create an artistic moment in the modern living space, the elegant pattern reverses colors on the opposite side for a two-in-one look. CB2 exclusive.
Detroit native Evelyn Ackerman founded ERA Industries in 1956 with her husband, Jerome. For 50 years, the Los Angeles-based couple played a central role in shaping the California midcentury modern movement. Ackerman's first woven tapestry design was featured on the cover of the Los Angeles Times Home Magazine in 1957. Presented in collaboration with Ackerman Modern, the pieces in this collection recreate the couple's iconic midcentury designs using original drawings and archival photographs.
