Bird & Pomegranate Percale Cotton Bedspread - Herbal Green

This is a quilted cotton bedspread carrying the Bird & Pomegranate design, a classic Morris pattern of wandering birds among branching pomegranate foliage. It is pure cotton throughout: a garment-washed slub cotton face, a percale reverse and a cotton wadding filling in between. Cotton wadding means the warmth is natural fibre rather than synthetic, so the layer breathes rather than trapping heat the way a polyester fill can. The single size offered measures 260 x 260cm, generous enough to sit over a double or king bed with an even drop on both sides.

A bedspread is the layer you fold back at night and pull up over the duvet by day, so it earns its place on top of the made bed as much as under you. This one is reversible, so it gives you two looks from one piece: the green bird and pomegranate print on the face, and a lighter leafy striped design on the reverse. That makes it easy to turn the whole scheme quieter simply by flipping it. It sits comfortably in a traditional bedroom, and the botanical print pairs readily with plain linen and wood furniture. The finish leans towards a warm, settled room rather than a stark one.

The face is garment-washed, which gives cotton a softer, lived-in handle and a gentle texture from the slub yarn, while the percale reverse is a plain, tightly woven cotton that feels crisp and smooth against the skin. The quilting is worked in straight channels that hold the wadding evenly in place, and a contrast flat piped trim runs around the edge. Being all cotton, it washes and wears predictably and grows softer with use. If you like this design, look for the matching Bird & Pomegranate pillowcases and duvet cover to build the full bed.

Is this bedspread really reversible?

Yes. The face carries the green bird and pomegranate print and the reverse shows a lighter leafy striped design, so you can turn it over for a quieter look whenever you want.

What is inside it and how warm is it?

The filling is pure cotton wadding, so the warmth comes from natural fibre. Cotton breathes well, which makes it a comfortable top layer across the year rather than only in deep winter.

What size bed does 260 x 260cm suit?

At 260cm square it will sit over a double or a king bed with an even drop down both sides. Measure your bed width plus the fall you want on each side to be sure.

What is the difference between the two cotton faces?

The face is garment-washed slub cotton, which gives a softer, textured handle. The reverse is percale, a plain tightly woven cotton that feels crisp and smooth.

Does it go with other bedding in the range?

The Bird & Pomegranate design runs across matching pieces, so you can coordinate this bedspread with pillowcases and a duvet cover in the same pattern.
