Annie Selke Lazio Matelassé Coverlet & Shams

Matelassé is a weaving technique that creates a raised, quilted effect on the fabric without actually using padding. It gives the coverlet a sophisticated, textured look that feels substantial yet remains lightweight.

Yes, it is designed for year-round use. Because it is made from breathable Egyptian cotton, it provides a comfortable, lightweight layer that works perfectly on its own during warmer months or as a decorative top layer in the winter.

Egyptian cotton is known for its long, fine fibers, which result in a softer, more durable fabric compared to standard cotton. You can expect a smooth, breathable texture that softens further with each wash.

The double-stitched hem is a mark of quality construction that helps the coverlet maintain its shape over time. It also provides a clean, tailored finish that allows the bedding to drape neatly over the edges of your mattress.

While the matelassé weave is durable, we recommend following the care label instructions carefully—typically machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibers and the texture of the weave.
