Ornate Florals Rust and Maroon Reversible Quilt

The motifs on this quilt were once painted on palace walls, ornate, layered, the kind of decoration that required years of apprenticeship to produce. Artisans in Sanganer, outside Jaipur, Rajasthan, translated them into carved wooden blocks and pressed them into fine cotton mulmul by hand. The quilt is filled with pure cotton stuffing and stitched through by hand, the quilting lines following the flower's stem.

Rust and Maroon is not a timid palette. These are the colors of sindoor, of dried flowers, of lacquered wood in old havelis. The ornate floral motifs pressed into this cotton mulmul quilt in Sanganer, outside Jaipur, Rajasthan, carry that weight, elaborate, layered, the kind of pattern that rewards close looking. The quilt is reversible, each face hand block-printed with a different design, so the object offers two complete moods.

Fine mulmul on the outside, pure cotton stuffing inside, no synthetic fill, no polyester. Lightweight enough to sleep under even in a cold-air room, warm enough when the night cools. This is a quilt that came from hands that know what they are doing, and it shows.
