Faux fur throw blankets hit the market several years ago (early 2000s I think) and have remained a surprisingly resilient item in the marketplace. I say surprising because there is a certain kitsch factor...
I have to confess however, that I have always liked faux fur throws. Not the scary leopard or zebra ones but the classic ones that look like a mink coat made into a blanket...
Pottery Barn has a nice one this season and it's on sale now for $119 (regularly $149). They're also offering free shipping on this item. The ivory one is already sold out.
I like the idea of draping the dark mink throw across the end of your bed... and making the bed up with some dramatic sheets like some old ones I have in my sheet collection, Ralph Lauren Galahad.
