GLORIOUS!
EDIT: UPDATED REVIEW AT THE BOTTOM.That's the only word I can think of to describe this thing (It's the red damask one). Well, okay, so brothel-chique also sort of comes to mind.But seriously, it's beautiful! It truly is! A few minor hits, though:1. The backing, at least on the one we got, is solid dark red. I don't know if the material is the same but it seems to have the same weight and texture so I guess it is. The duvet and the pillows are lie this.2. The pattern on the pillowcases, again, on the ones we got, are perpendicular to the duvet. That's okay with me because this is a really busy set and the perpendicular pattern breaks it up some.3. The material isn't cut so that the pattern breaks evenly across the width of the bed, meaning there's no central row in the pattern to line up with the center line of the bed. It's like they just cut what they need off the roll and don't worry about it. That being the case, you're probably as likely as not to get one that does line up. We didn't and that sucks, but it's not the end of the world.Now, we just got this today so we'll have to see how it holds up over time but we poured over it when it got here looking for holes, stains, loose buttons, etc. and everything passed. Then I washed it and there were no balls of thread in the washer or the lint collector afterward so I think it'll be fine. If not, I'll update the review.It's also worth mentioning that these things are sized really small. I had to buy a king sized duvet just to get adequate length for our full sized bed. I know it's not supposed to come all the way to the floor like a standard bedspread but that's what we wanted so we bought one that would. The king pillow cases are too big, of course, but we just folded the flaps under and we're not going to sleep on them anyway so it's fine.I really can't stress enough how beautiful this thing is. Even calling it glorious is an understatement. The pictures do it no justice at all. It's also very bright. Sure, it's got some burgundy in it but it also has as much or more bright red. The blue is more of a blue/green and the gold is definitely gold. None of it looks drawn on to me, though. By all appearances it's very high quality material. And it is somewhat shiny but then it would be with the colors and the high thread count. I expect this to fade at least a little bit after several washings. And it's cotton so you can't leave it in the dryer. Once it's dry you gotta get it out and on the bed or else it'll be a wrinkly mess.Is it soft? Eeeeh.... I think I'd call it slick, not so much soft. It's not scratchy or stiff or anything, just not velvety soft, but we'll be sleeping under it not on it, so no problem there.UPDATE: So it's been months now and this thing is still awesome. We're cheating and just stuck a blanket in there instead of a comforter because we don't like comforters. It's a real PITA to get a blanket in there right but it's worth the effort. I think once this coronavirus crap clears out we're going to get some cotton batting and take it to an alteration shop and have them turn it into a legit bedspread so we don't have to fight with it every time we want to wash it.So yeah, after months of use it still passes with flying colors. It is beautiful, surprisingly high quality, and so comfortable. But be warned - If you're going to buy an oversized one to stuff with a blanket and use like a bedspread be prepared for a lot of work to get it in there right. You could not put anything in it and use it like it is, but it doesn't look good like that. It really needs something inside it to give it some body.

Looks Lovely
I was hesitant to buy this coverlet, I thought it might be too much color. I was wrong. It is lovely. It is well made - the sewing is perfect - the feel of it is smooth and soft. It goes well with my 4 poster bed. I am using it as a coverlet right now but will try it with a quilt later. I am very satisfied.

Very close to perfect
This product is nearly perfect-beautiful material, clear, lucid colors, exquisite craftsmanship, and incredible value for the money. When I opened the package, I was bowled over. I had no great expectations because if I’d wanted something to be like custom I’d have gone to a decorator and gotten a custom cover and paid for it too. But, and I kid you not, without a super close inspection, this could pass muster. Heavy cotton, pure colors, I just love it!!So why didn’t I give it 5 stars you are probably asking about now? I should, I guess, I’m no doubt being too picky. The thing is— the top is put on with the peacocks upside down. If I put them right side up then the bottom of the duvet cover with the buttons will be at the top of the bed. Therefore no perfect grade for this product.I am however keeping it and using it because I really like it a lot and am not the kind of person that kind of thing bothers. I like harmless quirks. But others may not so I mention it here.

TOO NARROW
Lovely colors and print a positive contribution to our bedroom, most pleased The fabric is wonderful to the touch, the workmanship is well-done. Purchased a California King for our King sized bed, wanted extra width....this cover is supposedly 96" wide. When placed upon the bed, the overhang on each side is very disappointing, not much better than the King size which is not satisfactory. I certainly would not consider purchasing another California King cover. The photos and advertisements all depict a duvet and cover with generous proportions, luxury and comfort implied....the photo for this product shows side coverage extending close to the floor....reality....hah, not even close to the bottom of the mattress, never mind the box spring, most disappointing.

Beautiful Product
I spent over a month looking for a duvet cover comprobadle to something sold at Anthropologie and this one comes pretty darn close. The design is beautiful and even more aesthetically pleasing in person. It is still just as soft after washing (per provided instruction) but I recommend air drying though-contrary to the tumble dry instruction-as it didn’t take excessively long and will preserve its softness and maybe color. The ties for the insert are actually loops so it took me a minute to figure out how to tie them in. They don’t seem very strong and possibly prone to ripping, but time will tell. Only feedback is maybe providing more and sturdier ties to hold the insert in place. Other than that I absolutely love this cover!

Very pretty
This item was delivered quickly. We've been sleeping with a white down comforter and needed to cover it especially with the dog sleeping with us. This duvet is lovely, muted blues and golds paisley print. (no black or orange) It goes beautifully with my bedroom decor which has designer touches. My only disappoint thus 4 stars is the fit on my comforter. Placing the pattern as shown, the fabric is very long while the sides are short. Overall it hasn't been too much of a distraction to return. The buttons which are hidden when closed are on the side. It is well constructed and very cozy to sleep with. It is pricey compared to many of the duvets on the site, it was just what I was looking for my bed. Also note, in Florida we seldom take down this quilt unless there's a cold spell. We're enjoying the cool nights for now. It won't last much longer.

Bedroom Luxury!
This duvet cover is really lovely. I love the feel of the fabric and it does not give the impression that it will “pill” like so many other toppers do. It makes our bed look very luxurious!
