Graham & Green Velvet Quilt in Pale SageHow gorgeous and snug looking are these sumptuous velvet quilts from Graham & Green?  Soft and luxurious, they’re the perfect way to add colourful, opulent texture to a room.  But, of course they’re incredibly practical too.  If you need a cosy extra layer on top of the duvet when the weather turns really cold, why not make it as beautiful as this?  And cuddling up under one of these velvet quilts on the sofa or your favourite armchair of an evening would be the ultimate in cosy luxury.

But velvet’s not just for winter –  these quilts are versatile enough to be used year round.  With their natural cotton voile backing, you can simply add one on top of a thin cotton or linen sheet when the unpredictable British summer weather turns cool.

There are lots of velvet quilts around at the moment, but these from Graham and Green caught my eye in particular.  The exteriors are made from natural fibres – 100% cotton velvet with a cotton voile backing.  And the filling is polyester, so perfect for allergy sufferers.

I particularly like the hand-knotted tassel detail, which adds character and textre and stops the quilts looking too glamorous.  For myself, I prefer my interiors opulence to be more bohemian luxe than boudoir glitz.

Graham & Green Velvet Quilts in Smoke Blue, Pale Sage and Rose PinkAbove: The Pebble Velvet King Size Quilt in Smoke Blue adds a dash of jewel-bright colour.  Whilst the folded quilt in the Sage Green colourway (also featured at the top of the page) is ultra-calming and serene, don’t you think?

Graham & Green King Size Velvet Quilt in Rose PinkAbove:  Graham and Green Pebble Velvet Quilt in Rose.  Blush pink is firmly established as a contemporary neutral and looks fresh and feminine teamed with pale colours.  On the other hand, it’s also strong and contemporary as an accent colour against dark greys, inky blues and dark fir green.

So, has one of these contemporary velvet quilts caught your fancy to keep you luxuriously warm this winter?
