Coverlets: Traditionally used as a decorative cover over a blanket on a formal bed. Today, coverlets are meant to be layered under a comforter. A coverlet may be tucked in or left untucked, according to its weight and your preference. The comforter is then folded at the foot of the bed on top of the coverlet, for easy access to greater warmth and a luxurious look.

Blanket Cover: Unlike a bedspread, a blanket cover does not extend to the floor, but ends just below the mattress. It is often made of a matelassé, diamond piqué or jacquard fabric, and may serve as a lightweight bedcover or coverlet. Traditionally it was a 'covering' for the blanket giving a more formal look, blanket covers may also be used underneath a duvet cover.

Matelasse: From a French word meaning cushioned or padded, this fabric is jacquard-woven to create a raised pattern with a quilted or sculpted effect. Matelasse material tends to wear very well, and it is often used as a blanket cover or coverlet (and the term is often used interchangeably), but matelasse material can be used for shams, bed skirts, throws and more.
