Price History
Description
This cotton-rich bedspread is made with a touch of linen in the fabric for added refinement. Squared quilting creates a textured effect, while tonal binding ensures a neat finish. You can wash this piece in your machine and dry it in your tumble dryer. This is to push bedspreads as a summer option not just winter
Our Stylist Says
The M&S cotton-rich quilted bedspread with linen khaki offers a versatile layer that works well in both contemporary and traditional interiors. I love how its neutral khaki tone adds warmth without overpowering a space, making it easy to pair with a variety of colour schemes and textures. It’s particularly effective in relaxed, understated bedrooms or those with a natural, earthy palette. For styling tips, consider draping it over the end of the bed for a casual look or layering it with other throws and cushions for more dimension. Its quilted finish contributes a subtle textured detail that can elevate even minimalist schemes, while its soft cotton blend ensures comfort and durability for everyday use.

About Marks & Spencer
History and Expansion
Marks and Spencer, often lovingly called "Marks and Sparks" or "M&S", has been a staple in the UK market since its founding in 1884. Over the years, the brand has seen tremendous growth, with 1,064 stores across the UK and an additional 406 locations worldwide as of 2023.
Historically, M&S was celebrated for its commitment to selling British-made goods, pioneering the "St Michael" brand in 1928 which honoured its co-founder Michael Marks.
As they grew, M&S maintained its reputation for quality, fair value, and innovative customer policies, even allowing returns with full cash refunds regardless of purchase date.
Clothing & Home Business Endeavours
In recent years, M&S has focused on modernising its Clothing & Home business, striving to offer contemporary, stylish products that resonate with their 22 million customers.
A noteworthy move was their acquisition of Jaeger in 2021, a brand that shares a founding year with M&S. Under M&S's umbrella, Jaeger remains an independent brand, renowned for its timeless elegance, and is now available on M&S's website and in select M&S stores across the UK and Ireland.
Sustainability and Innovations
Throughout its existence, Marks and Spencer has demonstrated commitment to improving customer experience and sustainability.
In the 1950s, they introduced hygiene training for canteen staff, and by the 1960s had implemented thermostatically controlled refrigerators for enhanced energy efficiency.
M&S has been at the forefront of many retail innovations, from introducing "sell by dates" in the early '70s to enhance food quality, to banning smoking in all their stores as early as 1959 due to fire hazards.
The brand's long standing dedication to quality, customer relations, and sustainability remains evident in their practices today.
