ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
This vintage chenille bedspread has a gentle, ombre buttercream background with a grid of diamond-set squares outlined in sage gray tufted dots. Each square holds a white daisy flower with a contrast center and charcoal gray leaves, with twisted white cabling woven between the squares.The muted palette feels delicate and old-fashioned, especially because the background has natural ombre color variations. This was an original piece displayed in a long-closed local Bed & Breakfast, where the sun shining through the windows created these gorgeous, one-of-a-kind color variances.
An ideal FULL size spread for your cottagecore, farmhouse, or grandmillennial bedroom. Lightweight material has the feel of an old fashioned cotton sheet, with needletufting that adds textural interest.
Create a boho chic, on-trend look by layering with other textiles.
