Dusty Pink Royal Courtyards Reversible Quilt

Dusty Pink is the color of old rose petals, of stone that has been in the sun for a long time, of the walls of certain Rajasthani havelis in the late afternoon. This quilt from the Royal Courtyards Collection is hand block-printed in Sanganer, outside Jaipur, Rajasthan, the leafy stripe motif pressed into fine cotton mulmul with carved wooden blocks. It is then stuffed with natural cotton and stitched through by hand, the quilting lines running parallel to the pattern.

The Royal Courtyards Collection draws from the decorative vocabulary of palace interiors, the textiles that dressed inner rooms, the quilts that were made to be used rather than displayed. This quilt in Dusty Pink carries leafy stripe motifs hand block-printed on cotton mulmul in Sanganer, outside Jaipur, Rajasthan, the color warm without being saccharine, the pattern ordered without being rigid. Reversible, each face offers a different design from the same hand and the same tradition.

Fine cotton mulmul outside, pure cotton fill inside. Nothing synthetic. The stitching is done by hand, the lines passing through all layers in an even grid that holds the fill in place and shows exactly what this object is: a quilt made by people who have made quilts all their lives. Lightweight enough for air-conditioned sleep, substantial enough to hold its shape on the bed.
