Twelve Days Frill Cotton Striped Duvet Cover Set - Green

The Twelve Days Frill Duvet Cover Set is a reversible design in a 52% polyester, 48% cotton blend, printed on both sides so one cover gives you two looks. One face carries a scattered Twelve Days of Christmas scene on a deep green ground: a highland cow, geese, hens, doves, oranges, bells and drums picked out among trailing golden foliage and small red bows. Turn it over and you have a clean red, green and cream stripe. A frilled edge runs around the cover and the matching pillowcase, and the set comes in Single, Double, King and Super King.

This is festive bedding made to sit in the room for the season rather than as a fussy display piece. The green ground reads warm against wooden furniture and reddish tones, and it sits happily beside a red throw, a velvet cushion or the plain sage accents shown here. Because the two sides are so different in feel, one busy and pictorial, the other quiet and linear, you can dress the bed up for the run into Christmas and then flip to the stripe when you want something calmer, without buying a second set.

The polyester and cotton blend is chosen for easy living: it dries quickly and, as the supplier states, needs no ironing, so you get a crisp look with very little effort. The cover fastens with buttons for a secure fit, and the frill is finished on both the cover and the pillowcase. Cotton in the blend adds a softer, more breathable hand than polyester alone, while the polyester helps the print hold its colour and shrug off creasing. Single sets include one pillowcase; Double, King and Super King include two. Match it with a plain green or red pillow for a considered look, or let the print do the talking on its own.

What is the cover made from?

It is a blend of 52% polyester and 48% cotton, so you get the softness of cotton with the crease resistance and colour hold of polyester.

Is the design really reversible?

Yes. One side shows the Twelve Days of Christmas illustrations on green, the other a red, green and cream stripe, so a single set gives you two looks.

Does it need ironing?

No. The supplier states it needs no ironing and dries quickly, so you can put it straight back on the bed for a crisp finish.

How does the cover fasten?

It closes with buttons along the opening, which hold the duvet securely inside and stop it shifting overnight.

How many pillowcases come in the set?

The single set includes one pillowcase; the double, king and super king sets each include two matching frilled pillowcases.

Which sizes are available?

The set is made in Single, Double, King and Super King, so you can match it to your existing duvet and bed.
