With over two dozen bedding Collections to choose from, Essential-Luxuries.com offers a great diversity of classic, luxury bedding styles. Quick-Ship Collections feature a more casual elegance. Custom-Quality Collections feature more sumptuous fabrics - silks, tapestries, velvets - and rich trims to create a truly opulent bedroom environment. New Collections are introduced each Spring and Fall, and our product line of accessories is expanding. Whether you're furnishing your master suite or guest room, city condo, suburban homestead or vacation home, we can help you create a wonderful retreat.
The Mystic Valley Traders line is extremely well made to provide years of comfort, beauty and enjoyment. Their cutters, stitchers and finishers represent over 450 years of experience! Not until every fabric edge is finished and every zipper is carefully concealed does a product meet Mystic Valley Traders' high standard of quality.
One of our favorite features of Mystic Valley Traders is their exceptional product delivery. All bedding products are made in the USA, so they're available for shipping quickly. Quick-Ship products are stocked by the manufacturer for immediate shipping via UPS. Custom-Quality products and Headboards are shipped within four weeks. This fast turnaround is very unique within the luxury furnishings industry; designer/custom furnishings often take months to create and can involve overseas shipping.
As you shop from our bedding Collections, consider how the bed will be used. Will pets have access to the bed? Do you spend Sunday mornings with the newspaper sprawled across the covers? (Black labs, newsprint and cream velvet don't mix well; select a more muted or deeper color choice, and everyone can happily co-exist!) Are Duvets and Coverlets for decorative use, or will they be used for sleeping comfort? Will the bed be exposed to bright sunlight? Sunlight can bleach certain fabrics; silks, reds and blues are particularly vulnerable, but, lighter colors are much more forgiving of sunlight exposure.
Consider proportion as well. You want the "drop" (what hangs over the edge) of Duvets, Coverlets and Bedskirts to be in correct proportion to one another and to your bed height. Our Tips & Terminology section offers great information on product dimensions and measuring recommendations.
Proportion also plays a role in how many pieces are needed to best make your bed. If you're the cozy type, pile the bed with Shams and Pillows galore. If you prefer a more streamlined look, oversized Shams with one exceptional decorative Pillow can do the trick. Of course, different size beds require different accessorizing. We recommend the following:
| Twin |
One King Sham two 18" Pillows a Neckroll add a Duvet Cover, Matelasse, or Throw Coverlet and a Bedskirt, and viola!, you have a beautifully appointed ensemble that is in proportion to a Twin sized bed. |
| Streamlined Twin: |
One King Sham a Neckroll or Boudoir Pillow add a Duvet Cover, Matelasse or Throw Coverlet and a Bedskirt and you have a more streamlined, clean look that is very welcoming. |
| Full/Queen: |
For an opulent look you'll want a little of everything! Three Euro Shams two Standard or Queen Shams one 18" Pillow one 14" Pillow one Boudoir Pillow one Neckroll add a Matelasse, Throw Coverlet or a Fitted Coverlet with a Duvet Cover rolled at the foot of the bed a Bedskirt and, last but not least a Fabric Throw - pure luxury. |
| Streamlined Full/Queen: |
Two Queen Shams two Boudoir Pillows one Neckroll a Matelasse, Throw Coverlet or a Fitted Coverlet, or a Duvet Cover and a Bedskirt - you've created the simplicity of a streamlined yet elegant grouping |
| King: |
For a grand look befitting the size of a King bed use four Euro Shams two King Shams two 18" Pillows one 14" Pillow one Boudoir Pillow one Neckroll along with a Matelasse, Throw Coverlet or Fitted Coverlet atop the bed and a Duvet Cover rolled at the foot of the bed add a Bedskirt and a Fabric Throw, and this bed will make a statement that is truly you! |
| Streamlined King: |
A King sized bed is still a King sized bed and should be dressed so - no skimping: Two King Shams two 18" Pillows and one Boudoir Pillow a Duvet Cover, Matelasse, or a Throw Coverlet or Fitted Coverlet and a Bedskirt should nicely balance the size of your bed. |
