Glenna Jean Bedding: Pinzon Diamond Matelasse Coverlet Review

I liked the way this coverlet looks classic and clean in white, but still a bit modern because of the pattern.It's more for warmer weather because it's fairly lightweight, but it looks really good on the bed.

Product Description:
Give your bedroom a little extra something with the Pinzon diamond matelasse coverlet. The diamond matelasse pattern adds a great quilted texture to the bed and, when combined with Pinzon's Hotel Banded, White Pleats and Ruffles, and Fleur Jacquard collection pieces, creates a good-looking, layered effect. Offered in three sizes and six high-fashion colors, the coverlet accessorizes easily and helps to outfit any bedroom in the house. Made of 50 percent cotton and 50 percent polypropylene, the coverlet has a substantial weight for warmth and a slight stretch for comfortable rolling and lounging. This full/queen size coverlet measures 92 by 90 inches and needs dry cleaning only for care.

History of the Region
Portugal's major textile factories are located in Guimaraes. Guimaraes is known as the "cradle" or "birth city" of Portugal, since it is home to the castle of Portugal's first king. As one of the country's most historic cities with well-preserved monuments, it is a popular tourist attraction. Among other sites to see are two squares with outdoor cafes and balconied houses, called Praça de Santiago and Largo da Oliveira. At Largo da Oliveira is the old Town Hall and the Church of Nossa Senhora da Oliveira, with a Gothic shrine erected in 1340 standing before it. There are many legends about its origins, but a popular story says it marks the spot where Wamba, elected king of the Visigoths, refused his title and drove a pole into the ground swearing that he would not reign until it blossomed, and it sprouted immediately. Guimaraes hosts an annual 3-day festival of medieval art and costume in the first week of August, which dates from the middle of the 15th century and includes a torchlight procession and a medieval parade. Not only renowned for textiles and historical sites, Guimaraes is in the heart of the "Vinho Verde" region, so called for its locally produced fresh, young "green wines."
