Price History
Description
Add extra texture and cosiness to your bedroom with this cotton-rich bedspread. It's made from matelassé woven fabric that gives a squidgy, textured effect. Slender tonal stripes create a restful finish.
Our Stylist Says
I love this bedspread for its versatile, understated look that works well in both classic and contemporary interiors. The stripe design adds subtle texture without overwhelming, making it a great layering piece over neutral bedding or as a standalone feature in a minimalist scheme. Its cotton-rich, matelassé finish provides a bit of structured interest while remaining practical and easy to care for. For styling tips, consider pairing it with soft, textured cushions or a chunky throw for a cosy, inviting bed. It also works well in casual, relaxed bedrooms, especially when paired with natural wood elements or soft pastel accents. Overall, this is a timeless piece that adds subtle sophistication and comfort to your space.

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.
