Bedspreads and Throws
A bedspread serves two functions at once: it covers the bed during the day, making the bedroom look tidy, and protects the bedding from dust. On a sofa, the same element acts as decoration and an invitation to relax.
What size for the bed?
The bedspread should be noticeably larger than the bed – it should drape freely over the sides. For a bed measuring 160×200 cm, a bedspread of about 220×240 cm works well, and for a 180 cm bed – 240×260 cm.
If the bed is positioned sideways against the wall, a smaller size will suffice – the fabric only needs to drape from one side.
Bedspread or Throw?
A bedspread is larger and primarily serves a decorative function. A throw is smaller, usually 130×170 cm, and is used for covering up on the sofa. On a sectional, a throw looks great draped over the armrest or folded on the seat.
Materials
Wool – especially merino and alpaca – provides excellent warmth with minimal weight and drapes beautifully. Cotton is easy to wash and suitable for year-round use. Quilted models maintain their shape and lie flat, creating the most organized effect on the bed.
Texture matters more here than pattern – braids, narrow stripes, or fringes create depth that a smooth fabric cannot achieve.
How to Combine
The simplest rule: repeat the color of the bedspread in the pillows or rug, while keeping the rest of the fabrics in a muted palette. In the living room, a throw draped over a chair or chaise longue instantly enlivens the relaxation area.
You can find more suggestions in the textiles collection, and complete your bedroom among the sheets.
