Description
The Hermione bedspread is a quilted throw-over made from a pure cotton cover, printed with a Toile de Jouy floral in soft blue and cream against a moss-green ground. Roses, trailing branches, small birds and the occasional butterfly run across the surface, drawn in the fine linear style of a traditional toile. A cream ruffled frill borders every edge, and the reverse is a plain cream that reads as the quieter face if you want to turn it over. It comes in two sizes, 150x200cm and 240x260cm, so the larger one drops well over the sides of a double or king bed.
This is a topper rather than a duvet, meant to sit over your existing bedding as a day layer or an extra blanket on cooler nights. The moss and blue palette suits a country or relaxed bedroom, and it sits happily with painted wood, wicker and warm neutral walls of the kind you might already have. Because the print side and the plain cream reverse are so different in feel, you can dress the bed formally with the floral showing or keep it plain with the ruffled cream face up. It layers over white or cream sheets without fuss, and the frill gives a soft finish where it meets the pillows or the floor.
The cover is 100% cotton, which is breathable and soft to the touch and washes well, so it takes everyday use in its stride. The filling is polyester, giving the quilted body a light, even loft held in place by the stitched pattern you can see across the surface. The ruffled trim runs the full perimeter as a continuous frill. Cotton takes a warm iron easily if you want the frill crisp, and the plain cream reverse doubles the ways you can style it through the year.

Frequently Asked
What is the Hermione bedspread made from?
The cover is 100% cotton and the filling is 100% polyester, so you get a breathable cotton surface over a light, evenly lofted quilted body.
Is this a duvet or a throw-over?
It is a throw-over topper that sits above your existing bedding, useful as a day cover or as an extra layer on cooler nights.
Which size should I choose for my bed?
The 150x200cm suits a single or a light drape on a double, while the 240x260cm gives a generous overhang on a double or king bed.
Can I use the plain side instead of the floral?
Yes, the reverse is plain cream, so you can turn it over for a quieter look while keeping the same ruffled frill on show.
How does the cotton cover behave in the wash?
Cotton is absorbent and hard-wearing and takes a warm iron well, which helps if you want the ruffled frill looking crisp after laundering.
