Queen Elizabeth is an authentic vintage reproduction bedspread of an original handwoven masterpiece dating back to the first Elizabethan Era before becoming popular in Colonial America. Elegant center medallion and flowers woven in an intricate "puffed" pattern give grace and clarity to this classic design. It is woven in solid white and antique colors and two-tone colors include: french blue/antique, white/antique (linen), sage/natural and wedgewood blue/white.
Heritage features a repeat pattern of circle and leaf design and is also available in coverlet sizes with pom-pom fringe. Other popular matelasse designs are available as well as Chenille-type/candlewick throws from Maine Heritage Weavers which is located in Lewiston, Maine, in one of the former Bates Mill buildings. The employees of Maine Heritage Weavers are comprised mostly of former Bates Fabrics employees.
