A beautiful soft bedspread is a stunning addition to the interior of a living room or bedroom. It will add flavor to the design and make your daytime more enjoyable and comfortable. Turkish manufacturers are currently making magnificent bedspreads from various materials that meet all European quality standards: whether it is a catchy red bedspread with flounces or a discreet bamboo blanket.
Features of the
The textile industry in Turkey is developing rapidly and modern technologies allow to produce elegant, stylish and durable products. The quality of the bedspreads is not inferior to the European ones.
However, products from this country have one distinctive feature. Unlike the West, where handicraft is slowly dying out, Turkey still has a long tradition. Therefore, many interior items are hand-embroidered. Quilts are also often made without the use of modern technology. The price of such products, meanwhile, is not as exorbitant as things from Italy or France.
Lovers of exclusiveness will need a hand-woven product. You can choose your preferred material and pattern, or trust the taste of the artisan. In this way, completely special interior items are obtained, which practically do not wear out and are passed on from generation to generation.
Handmade work not only looks more impressive than machine work. The master puts his heart into each product, so they are surrounded by a special comfort. In addition, these bedspreads have a longer service life.
Jacquard products look impressive in the interior of a bedroom or living room. They can be made from a wide variety of fabrics. Jacquard in this case is a special technique of weaving threads. It is based on a repeating relief ornament that looks sophisticated and extravagant.
It should be noted that the assortment of Turkish textile companies includes products not only in oriental, but also in other styles. Therefore, it is possible to choose the right bedspread for any interior.
Varieties
Among the bedspreads that adorn beds and sofas, purely decorative models and blankets can be distinguished.
The first ones are usually made from natural material with the addition of synthetics, so that they are easier to care for and have a harder, dense surface. Such fabrics keep their shape well, therefore they look more strict and elegant.
Decorative bedspreads often have inserts from other fabrics, such as organza or velor, to create a three-dimensional pattern. They can also be embroidered, beaded or beaded. Such interior items look truly luxurious. They can have tassels or fringes, be trimmed along the edges with lace and braid. The wealth of options allows you to choose any one that suits a particular house and its inhabitants.
In Russian stores, it is easy to find blankets from Turkish manufacturers, which not only look beautiful and modern, but are also able to warm you on a cool evening, or you can cover yourself with them while sleeping. They have a simpler soft texture so that nothing will scratch the skin. For the manufacture of a blanket, only natural materials can be used, which will ensure the most comfortable sleep.
Such models can be of different shades and colors. Often, colorful blankets made from natural fabrics are used as bedspreads for children. They look cheerful, easy to care for and, if necessary, you can wrap your baby in them.
Material
Turkish blankets and bedspreads from various fabrics are presented on the textile market.
The cheapest products are made of synthetics. Such a popular material as polyester is used both in combination with polypropylene or nylon, and when mixed with natural raw materials.
These models often look attractive because of the vibrant colors and all kinds of patterns that are applied to the fabric using industrial printing. They are soft and plush to the touch. These qualities make them very attractive to children. Also, bedspreads made of artificial materials do not require special care.
However, artificial materials become electrified, making them unpleasant to use. Also, such blankets have low thermoregulatory properties: under them it is cold in winter and hot in summer. In addition, they do not absorb moisture well.
Concluding, we can say that such products are good to use only for decorative purposes. Sleeping under them will be uncomfortable.
In the production of Turkish bedspreads, a fabric such as velsoft is often used. This material appeared not so long ago and is a fleecy surface constructed from synthetic fibers.
Unlike other man-made fabrics, its soft surface keeps you warm. In the process of using a velsoft blanket, the correct air exchange is created. The fabric allows the skin to breathe.
The material is hypoallergenic and durable, does not fade during washing and does not fade. It is absolutely safe for human health. Due to the pleasant sensations that the surface of velsoft delivers to the skin, it is often used for sewing children's clothes.
Interior items made of satin and taffeta look luxurious and mysterious. They are used for decorative bedspreads and are often combined with organza, tulle, rich embellishments and embroidery.
Bamboo textiles are widespread in the East, but little is known here. In the process of processing the raw materials, no chemical compounds are used, the fibers are obtained by repeated boiling and combing. Therefore, bamboo products are environmentally friendly and hypoallergenic.
They are highly hygroscopic. On the one hand, this allows the rugs to provide a restful and comfortable sleep, but this makes them unsuitable for humid climates, since the liquid slowly evaporates into the environment.
Bamboo is not electrified. It has healing properties. Products made from this fiber are believed to help relieve stress and promote sleep. It is pleasant to the touch and maintains warmth well, but is not suitable for very cold winters.
Among the bedspreads made of natural materials, bamboo pleases with its price, since this grass grows very quickly, and requires minimal maintenance. The products are very durable and easy to use. They will be a wonderful and functional home decoration.
Cotton waffle bedspreads are an excellent choice. It is an inexpensive natural material that has many remarkable properties.
Breathable fabric perfectly allows air to pass through and normalizes the temperature under the bedspread. Therefore, it can be used not only as decoration, but also for sleeping.… Cotton absorbs moisture well.
Care
Important recommendations:
- Blankets can be machine washed in a delicate wash at temperatures up to 30 degrees. Do not neglect using fabric softener, which will soften the fibers. Powders with large granules or bleaching properties are not suitable for washing; it is better to do with liquid detergents.
- Synthetic, bamboo and woolen blankets do not behave capriciously when washing. Cotton can also be machine washed, but it can shrink if the temperature is too high.
- Bedspreads must not be pre-soaked. It is better to dry them flat in a room where there is an influx of fresh air.
- Dense products, such as cotton tapestries, bedspreads with a padding polyester layer, are best dry-cleaned. Spot dirt can be removed with a stain remover.
- Satin items should be hand washed carefully. They should not be over-twisted when squeezing. The same goes for silk.
