Four Poster Drapes
Amalfi drape set (Chatsworth four poster bed)
The fabric alternative to the wooden closed canopy four poster has got to be the Amalfi drape set. Set with diamante the back curtain and tented roof sparkle and shimmer when caught in the light. You can use the Amalfi tented drape set to decorate any Revival four poster and a particular favourite we think would be the Orleans in a cream painted finish.
The tented canopy roof with incorporated back curtain in diamante natural fabric plus diamante bed runner backed in ivory 200 count cotton. A selection of scatter cushions and pillows in three different sizes – 30 x 50cm, 45 x 45 cm and 65 x 65cm. The black and white diamante cushions complement the drapes and to complete the cool Mediterranean feel we have gone with a 200 count Egyptian cotton duvet set in Ivory.
Ocean drape set (Vermont four poster bed)
This refreshing Ocean drape set gives four posters a contemporary modern feel. Think south sea island shacks that opening on to the sun-drenched beach. It's a much more informal look than the typical heavy weaves and brocades; a drape set that blends with the hand-painted four posters perfectly.
Breezy and flamboyant this particular Ocean drape set uses white voiles with blue flecks woven throughout each of the six curtains. To continue the easy look the drapes loop tab-tops around the canopy and create a laid back and relaxed bedroom. Each of the curtains is tied back with satin ribbon (also available in gold satin).
The boudoir cushions heaped around the headboard are in Remo duck egg fabric with an ivory piped edge, along with contrasting square Aspen ice-blue cushions that also match the bed runner.
The bedding set is white 100% Egyptian cotton with Oxford pillow cases plus a contrasting pair in navy blue.
Raphael four poster drape set (The County Kerry four poster bed)
The stunning Raphael drape set lifts a grand bedroom to an opulent suite. The breathtaking swags and heavy brocades of these tester curtains and throws are country house retreat through and through. Just for the record, the theme and colour of this drape set is Champagne… for those who like to pop a cork!
Sumptuous frilled side drapes and back curtain are tailored from Asinia Champagne silk effect fabric. These luxury drapes have been balanced with the lighter white voiles, threaded with gold fleck and tied back with satin ribbon on the front post. The bed runner and back cushions are textured Marco which is a brocade-like fabric. Along with the Marco cushions are a pair of faux suede cushions in a rich chocolate plus a couple more cushions in Flores Natural.
Warwick four poster drape set (Ambassador four poster bed)
A Medieval-style four poster bed stacked with the layers of quilts with the roaring fire to keep out the weather. It's a theme that would fit into any Great Hall just as easily as it fits into a French Chateau. Four poster beds with a closed canopy like the Ambassador are virtually made for the Warwick drapes. The Ambassador bed and the Warwick drapes - a partnership as perfect as strawberries and cream.
The luxury diamond-quilted bedspread is the focal point of the Warwick. but it's got much more going on; the rich Valencia and Charcoal fabric has been made to measure with a rouched and rolled edge in Pall Mall Gold. Around the canopy and the back curtain of the bed is a box pleated pelmet in Mirage gold edged with black piping. The box pleating provides the smart tailored appearance to the Warwick drapes. The stacked pillows include a pair of shams in the Valencia and Charcoal, and a contrasting pair of 45 cm x 45cm Mirage gold cushions piped in Pall Mall Black.
