Description
Woven in Portugal from the finest merino wool fibres, the Manta Vintage 1968 blanket is produced at Burel Factory on ancestral looms and finished by hand. The pattern draws from an earlier era of textile design, reinterpreted through Burel Factory's contemporary practice to create a piece that feels both rooted and refined.
The wool is organic and plastic-free, ethically sourced through fair trade production in the Serra da Estrela region. Milled to a dense, insulating cloth, it carries the warmth and durability that burel has been known for across generations. The Petroleum colourway brings a beautiful depth to the vintage pattern.
The Vintage 1968 blanket is a piece shaped as much by its values as by its making.

Wool shaped through time, process and place.
Burel Factory is a Portuguese textile house based in the Serra da Estrela mountain range, dedicated to preserving the craft and culture of wool. Working from a restored 19th century factory in Manteigas, the workshop continues a lineage of weaving shaped by generations of makers and deep regional knowledge.
Rooted in the rhythms of the land, the process begins with raw wool sourced from local flocks. The fibres are opened, carded, spun and woven on historic looms, before being milled through heat and water to create burel, a dense wool fabric known for its strength, warmth and durability.
Bringing together heritage machinery and contemporary design, Burel Factory carries this tradition forward through colour, form and application. Each piece reflects a commitment to slow production, material integrity and the enduring value of making.
