  • multi-layered, consisting of a front jacquard layer, heat-insulating material of synthetic winterizer and a backing layer of satin or polyester (quilted models with a mass of decorative elements in the form of ruche, ruffles, textile colors, bows, pleats, ribbons and other accessories).

Each model is unique in its own way and with the right choice to the basic elements of the interior it is able to decorate such styles as country, kitsch, shebbi-chic, minimalism, fusion, hi-tech and others.

According to the type of production, jacquard bedspreads can be simple capes or models of quilted plan with an inner layer of insulation that gives texture to the bedcover and significantly increases the presentable appearance.

Color and pattern

Color solutions jacquard bedspreads are varied. Most often, the drawing consists of two soft contrasts: excess paint can deprive the canvas of luxury and refinement. However, in the lines there are models with a skillfully selected palette of three or four shades that do not interrupt the sophistication and luxury of the pattern. A repetitive web print can be complex, large-patterned, one- and two-sided, tufted (Jacquard-fleece) or concise, tinted with stitches.

The main line is made up of models with a contrast of two shades of the same color: the pattern is obtained by interlacing light and bright threads. It is customary to select the tone in such a way that it merges into the general idea of ​​the design, but does not flood the area of ​​the room with an abundance of the same color.Jacquard bedspread will be appropriate if its shade coincides with the tone of the floor lamp table lamp, flower pot, picture frame.

Today, the focus is on the delicate shades of pastel colors (pink turquoise, blue, light green, light green, turquoise, powdery, mint, lilac), as well as tones of gold and silver (beige and light gray silk).

Subtleties of choice

So that the purchased product fits well into the existing interior, is durable and emphasizes the delicate taste of the owners of the house, you should take note Some simple tips:

  • Jacquard silk bedcover looks beautiful and expensive, but unstable to the appearance of clues, puffs and wrinkles during operation, and after washing it leaves stains, which makes the bed look sloppy;
  • The Jacquard Atlas is somewhat denser, less crumpled, but if there is a pet in the house, it will quickly become unattractive (forms clues from the claws of animals);
  • jacquard-satin covers are comfortable, less crushable, environmentally friendly, suitable for any season, perfectly breathable, do not accumulate static electricity, however, can give a slight shrinkage after washing;
  • The best models are quilted products with a sinteponovoy layer, a nap bottom and an additional decor: they practically do not crumple, can be a stylish cape and a light blanket.

The choice is made taking into account the features of the bed: in order for the product to cover the furniture from all sides, except the headboard with the back, 30-40 cm are added to the bed space on each side.

Taking measurements before purchasing a product is a must.

If the model of the bedspread has a frill at the edges, it should be wrapped around the desired size: ugly, if the frill of the purchased blanket will be located on a horizontal surface, instead of a vertical arrangement on three sides.Fringe is excluded: it simplifies the look of the material, instead of luxury, bringing banality and boredom into the style
