One style, 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 is another of our most popular matelasse designs. Heritage, features a repeat pattern of circle and leaf design and is also available in standard coverlet sizes with pom-pom fringe. It is also available in bedspread and throw sizes in many color combinations.
Both candlewick (chenille) and matelasse throws bedspreads are woven at Maine Heritage Weavers which is located in Lewiston, Maine, in one of the former Bates Mill buildings. Swatch cards are free to help customers choose the perfect color coverlet, throw or bedspread.
