Lauren Ralph Lauren "Rutherford Park" Duvet Cover, King Review

I just bought this duvet about a week ago, and here are the ways it does/doesn't match the above description:

Colors: This is mostly green--a muted, loden-type, sort of olive green. In the photos, it looks like it has more purples and pinks, but overall it's a bit more green and gold with a little pumpkin color and some dark plum. It's definitely as muted as the photos. (For one a bit more colorful, see the similar design from Ralph Lauren in their Poet's Society collection)

Design: The design (which is printed on, not woven or embroidered in) does look a lot like a persian rug. And to me, a LOTR fan, it looks almost elvish in overall appearance as there are a lot of interwoven, celtic-type lines on the outer edge. There are a few small pumpkin-colored flowers (not pink) that break up the green. In the middle is a dark plum-colored fancy medallion, about 1.5 ft in diameter. Also, don't expect a crisp design; the whole duvet is a bit fuzzy, almost pixellated, as if it was meant to look 3-D like tapestry. (this is the only reason it doesn't get five stars)

Texture: "Luxuriously soft"--um, no. The material is a very sturdy, canvas-type material (a bit thicker than a heavy denim) that will not fray or tear easily--which is a plus with me, as so many others seem made of such cheap fabric. However, it's not soft at all. So on top (the design side) it is a very thick canvas type material; inside, it's like a very thick cotton sheet in a muted green color that is printed to look textured but is not.

Weight: the heavy fabric makes the duvet a little heavy, but it's not unpleasant and keeps you nice and warm.

Construction: The buttons are not at the very edge (which can be annoying in a duvet), but are a few inches from the edge. The two fabrics used seem very sturdy.

Overall, I really like it. Wish there were more duvets with such unique designs and so well made. It has a sophisticated, bohemian look to it, and I am sure it will last for several years b/c of its sturdy construction. The design side was made in Italy, and it is VERY pretty.

Hope this review was helpful! Feel free to ask Qs.
God bless,
Christmas B.
