The ART of Arte Pura

Anyone who reads this blog knows I am insanely crazy for this line of Italian linens.  This is now a dated word "bedspreads" Not here.....  Some of these beauties are like gowns, double as duvets, embellished as much or as little or as much as you want.    

 32 gorgeous colors and 10 trims make your bed so unique.....

Take the Majia (above for example.....)  It can be ordered 12 ways. If you have a pet that sleeps on the bed you can lose the center crochet, and have a trim added to the border as shown below.

Yes this is the same bedspread.... With the Elegant Lace trim and no crochet on the top.  There is a relaxed volante surrounding the whole spread and an extra layer of linen added for a duvet insert. This example adds the sparkle of Swarovski crystal......Oh, and both come with an extra layer of linen encased organza....... Totally washable.

This is the Atollo.... A Puckered Linen in the Arguilla Old color..... Very popular in Gray.

Pillows are enhanced with Italian writing or a crown on a white background

you choose from three colors.

This is Lido, a clean contemporary look..... with a linen border.....

The linen top is embroidered in a geometric circle motif.

This in Amaryllis a cotton velvet soft as butter embroidered with "Cornelly Roses" in Chenille...

 Totally reversible to a soft brushed cotton.......

I love this one.... Oasi. Linen encased in organza with roses and cotton jersey ruched ruffles all around with a linen volante on the bottom.

This is a personal favorite......Every spread has a coordinating deco pillow and some have coordinating curtains........This is one that does......

 

The lovely Zaffiro in the Incanto Old....... Linen with Organza embroidered with roses with a volante encased in organza.  Looks like it is encased in gossamer.....Very ethereal.

This is Sorgente Similar to Zaffiro but with an arabesque embroidery and a double volante surrounding the entire spread...... We have one in the shop in a pale peachy pink everyone calls it the Peach Souffle Bed.

Oh yes they make curtains...... Incredible curtains.........

We just got the ones in on the right.... I am not usually a tab top person but when there are big

pearls on the tabs it changes the whole look.
