Black and White Throws That Add Pattern Without the Risk
Why choose black and white over a coloured throw?
Because it has no colour to clash, a black and white throw sits beside charcoal, cream, navy or timber furniture without a second thought. So when you repaint the walls or swap the cushions, you never need to reconsider it. Every Shopica black and white throw starts from $135 and sits inside our wider throws range, where you'll also find sizing and climate guidance for every style we stock.
Pattern Without the Commitment
Most people avoid pattern because it might date or clash. Black and white removes that risk, since the contrast does the visual work while the lack of colour keeps it neutral. That's why it still works in a room today the same way it did a decade ago.
All throws ship from Sydney with tracked delivery Australia-wide. Free returns within 30 days.

Three Reasons It Suits Every Interior
It Never Clashes
It adapts to the room instead of asking the room to adapt to it, which is why it survives every repaint and every cushion swap.
Pattern Without Colour Risk
The pattern adds the visual interest. The lack of colour removes the anxiety. That's the whole appeal in one sentence.
Suits Scandi and Contemporary
Clean lines and controlled contrast connect directly to the restraint these interiors are built around.
Choosing Your Pattern
Which Pattern Suits Your Room
The scale of the pattern changes how it reads once it's in the room, so match it to what's already there. If the room is busy, go fine. If the room is plain, go bold.
Large Check
Creates a strong focal point on a plain sofa.
Fine Stripe
Reads as texture rather than competition against a patterned cushion arrangement.
Geometric
Adds structure and a modern edge at the foot of a bed.
Styling Tip
Place neutral white cushions at the back, then drape this throw over one sofa arm. The contrast ties the arrangement together without overwhelming it.
Materials
What Keeps the Pattern Sharp
The fabric decides whether the contrast stays crisp or starts to bleed after a few washes.
Woven Cotton
Holds a crisp contrast wash after wash without bleeding, so the pattern stays sharp through everyday use.
Chunky Knit
Softens the graphic contrast, so the pattern feels relaxed instead of stark.
Double-Sided
One bold face, one restrained face, so you get two looks from a single piece.

WHY SHOPICA?
Quality You Can Trust
Shopica is a Sydney-based, family-owned homeware, décor and furniture store founded by Eliane El Khoury. What started as a passion for beautiful, considered interiors has grown into a trusted destination for Australians who care about how their home looks and feels. We curate cushions, floor lamps, mirrors, bedside tables, dining tables, outdoor furniture and decorative pieces chosen specifically for Australian homes. Every piece is held to the same standard we would demand for our own. We do not stock products simply because they are popular. We stock them because they are well made, beautifully designed and worth every dollar.
Our Sydney-based team understands how Australian homes are lived in. The open plan living and dining spaces that define modern Australian architecture. The need for furniture that is beautiful on the weekend and durable through the week. The importance of getting the details right, from the cushion on the sofa to the lamp beside the bed. We source every product with all of this in mind.
With Australia-wide delivery dispatched daily from our Smithfield warehouse in Sydney and personal customer support from a team that genuinely cares about your home, Shopica is here to help you create a space that feels as good as it looks. One considered piece at a time.
