A symbolic way to renew for the following day is within this Asian-inspired bedding covered with branching cherry blossoms, which represent the cycle of life. The set is comprised of a 92-by-96-inch queen-sized comforter, two 27-by-21-inch standard pillow shams, and a 60-by-82-inch queen bedskirt. Sewn from 100-percent cotton sateen in a luxurious 250 thread count, the front of the comforter and shams features a sedate design of white flowers with olive green and eggplant-colored greenery on a color-blocked background in two shades of beige. The cotton/polyester blend used for the backing and bedskirt is a mottled tan color with a texture printed within the fabric.
The comforter is generously oversized to accommodate pillow-top mattresses and overstuffed with polyester fiber to prevent flattening or shifting over time. The comforter is further embellished with tufted faux buttons embroidered at regular intervals along the bedding. Each of the two shams is also padded with polyester filling in the front and along the 3-inch flange to help it keep its shape. Both shams have envelope closures on the back. Finally, the bedskirt has a 14-inch drop and slit corners for a better fit. Coordinating sheets and accent pillows are also available separately. All Silk Blossoms bedding is washable on the gentle cycle and can be dried on low heat. --Cristina Vaamonde

The comforter is oversized to fit most pillow top mattresses and overfilled to the edges to prohibit sagging corners over time. The comforter is embellished with a coordinating solid cording on three sides. The shams are padded to ensure that its flange will stand up for a neat, crisp look on the bed.

The tailored bed skirt has a polyester / cotton platform for better fit and durability and a 14 inch long drop with split corners to accommodate a foot board.
