Unblanketed

The adjective 'unblanketed' describes a state or condition where something that was previously covered or protected by a blanket or similar covering is now exposed or uncovered. This can refer to literal blankets, like those used for warmth or concealment, or it can be used metaphorically to describe anything that has lost its covering or protective layer, revealing what lies beneath. The term emphasizes a sense of openness, exposure, or a lack of shielding.
